This is my virtual space for fiber. Besides me in my house, there are 4 fishes, 1 cat, 4 kids, 1 man and limited space for fiber. So the virtual one comes in handy.

FO no 12, 2005, alpaca shawl

I finally got the last fringes on. It's not easy to get good photos these days with little daylight. The bulky-alpaca green is really more intense, but this is the best I got:



details:
yarn: 1 strand of fingering weight garnstudio's alpaca, dark olive, approx. 3 1/2 skeins, 50 g each, including the fringes, and 1 strand of 1-ply bulky alpaca (discontinued) from Du store alpakka, approx. 3 skeins, 50 g each. (60 m pr. skein)
needles: 10 mm circular
pattern source: Du store alpakka

Your choice of yarns and colors is perfect for this shawl. I'd probably be wearing this nonstop (although, I maybe would have to answer a few questioning looks, being that I'm a guy, but... it looks quite warm and soft.)
