But I stuck it out and I completed it.<br /><br />The sad thing is (whispers) I don't like the finished article very much at all - I think I far prefer a crescent to a semi-circle, and I like the DK ones I have seen much better than my flimsy one. I may give my Citron away. Perhaps on the blog.<br /><br />Anyway - I am sure that you will love yours when it is done - it is a pretty yarn.plumbumhttp://www.woolgathering.org.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-971721308549315776.post-14507234206075700642010-08-12T02:57:35.251-07:002010-08-12T02:57:35.251-07:00Thank you everybody!

I managed a few more agonising rows last night, I think it actually might be rather nice when it's finished (Mel, go for it - it actually wouldn't take that long if I just gritted my teeth and did it.)<br /><br />The yarn is actually really nice - it's from Violet Green (www.violetgreen.co.uk). Also, I forgot to say, Susie Jefferson who did my blog also did the graphic for my lovely label - she's 1stfloorflat on etsy.Susiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05664454336482695288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-971721308549315776.post-33008057153118786282010-08-11T14:44:44.716-07:002010-08-11T14:44:44.716-07:00Your shawl is looking lovely- I've had that pa...Your shawl is looking lovely- I've had that pattern queued for a while (I even have the yarn for it) but I've seen lots of comments about the length of time it takes and its putting me off starting.<br /><br />Oh and the fabrics are gorgeous :DMelhttp://www.myfibreobsessedlife.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-971721308549315776.post-26413929384172394362010-08-11T14:10:47.585-07:002010-08-11T14:10:47.585-07:00Hang in there with the citron!

Keep working at it!<br /><br />That fabric in the second picture is beautiful! I'm sure you have great plans for it.Tami Klockauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07652939575098493098noreply@blogger.com
