I finally got around to weaving in the ends.
I rather like these colors.
You can't see the light color changes very well from the pictures, but it's really pretty in person. Knit Picks did a nice job choosing colors for this shawl.

Holy crap, Meg, that is beautiful! I love the way the colors blend in to each other. It looks like a cloudy sky slowly shading to night at the bottom. This is like something you should enter in the fair. :-)
Absolutely GORGEOUS!!! Just like everything you knit!
It is very pretty, and no I have never seen that movie so I will let you tell me about it. :)
Kess: Thank you! Gosh, I never thought about entering in the fair. That would be kind of crazy.
Cindy: Aww, thank you! :)
Totally on Steel Magnolias. I NEVER watch that movie for that reason!
Those colors are beautiful, Meg. I can see it with a pair of jeans and black leather flip flps...out to dinner with the muscle man. ;)
I can't believe I know someone who can make things like this. You're like the great grandmother I never had. But, you know, young and cool.
William, considering I love all things old fashioned and strive to be as good as a grandma, I take that as a huge compliment. Thanky :D
Awesome work....
