Again, forgot to mark in Ravelry! Strange.
Yarn:
Miss Babs Yowza - Whatta Skein! in Gal Noir Colorway
Purchased at Miss Babs Hand Dyed Yarns & Fibers
After both The Knit Girllls & Round the Twist's podcasts
discussing the Weigh It Shawls, I bought WI2. Love shawls that sit well on the
shoulders.
The toughest choice was which colorways to choose. And when
they got here, which one to use for the shawl!
I weighed the skein after winding. People aren't kidding
about these coming in heavy! This one is a whopping 9 1/8th oz!
Since I had so much more, I used more on the body of the
shawl. It is more a suggestion anyhow. Got to the edging. Did increase rows.
Have 64 grams to start the pattern repeat. I will weigh it again after to see
how much I am using for the two rows.
After 2 rows, 50 gms. 14 gms less.
36 gms after another repeat. Got out another repeat &
had enough to bind off.
Love the project. Fits wonderfully on the shoulders. Nice
and squishy. Definitely a new fav shawl.
