Notes on Project
Finally, a summer shawl project for me. I’ve been wanting to make this shawl for years and when Amy from Vivid Fiber Arts posted that she had a few of her Mermaid colorways up for sale, I jumped on it. I’ve the perfect outfit for this colorway and had it on my wishlist just waiting for its queue in her dye schedule. Luckily I didn’t have to wait because who knows when it will become available again. Thoroughly pleased with how it turned out. Even the tiny edging that I needed to dye to match worked out well. And the Twinity pattern by Anne Lise, I can’t rave enough about it.
*Special thanks to Anne-Lise Maigaard (Twinity shawl) for creating such a wonderful pattern and Vivid Fiber Arts for making such beautiful yarn.
