WIP: Lacy shawl n°1

Yes, I’m back online! Wow, did I miss you guys! I will be taking a break from the photo a day project for the moment, maybe I’ll do it again in a few months. Did you like it by the way? For now on my blog I’m going to focus more on the crafty things in my life, maybe the inspiration and creativity will be flowing more freely :-)
At the moment I’m working on 2 hooky and 1 knitty project at once. Of course blankie the second is still on the agenda, though she’s on a vacation right now :-)

Hooky project n°2 is a lacy shawl for my mum. She bought the yarn, a gorgeous brown, really thin, but fluffy kind. Drops Kid Silk (colour 15).

The pattern is Eva’s shawl, found online here. It’s a really easy pattern, after the first five rows, you just keep repeating row 3,4 and 5. It gives a really nice effect!

After a while it’ll look something like this: including the paperclips used as stitch markers ;-)

Lucky these days it doesn’t get dark until late, because with the colour and the thickness of the yarn, daylight is needed to find the right holes to put the crochet hook trough! Hopefully mom will like the finished shawl!
I’ll tell you more about the knitty project one of the days!
Love, Zjizjipke!
