Spring Snow

So.....I dropped off the blog for a while there. I'd blame it on overtime and that really big really pink shawl that didn't allow for much other knitting, and well really there's only so much you can say about a giant pink shawl, but the truth is - I've just plain been lazy. Pure and simple. Really must try to work on that!

In the meantime - spring has happened! (Warning! Photo heavy post!)

But more importantly, the giant pink snow shawl is complete! (Enormous, really - the largest lace project I've undertaken--of course if I hadn't gone UP half a needle size after getting gauge, things would have been a bit better...but I like it this size...I think.)

Of course, if you read Anne's website, you know this already. I finished Sunday night, we blocked Monday, and yesterday she got her pictures and released the pattern. It took me an extra day to get sunny pictures (darn work!) but I now present my test knit of Anne's Whispering Pines shawl:















Details at Ravelry. And many more pictures over at Anne's.
