south bay shawlette (1st: the blue)

This shawl holds a lot of "firsts" and that is why I love it very much:
- it is the first big garment I made (other than scarves and beanies),
- the first time I used the magnificent Katia darling yarn,
- my first attempt to read a charted crochet pattern,
- the first (of the three) south bay sawlettes that I made,
- the first delicate garment that I did put in the washing machine (and came out almost better that before!)

south bay shawlette (3rd: the automn)

I LOVE this unusual-and-interesting-compination-of-colors yarn, it seems as if it has been created for me!
I am making a crocheted shawl, the pattern is named South bay shawlette and the yarn is (fingering) "Katia darling".

Pattern: Sewanee, by Beth Bradford
Yarn: Shilasdair (40% Angora, 40% Merino, 10% Camel, 10% Cashmere), naturally dyed (color: sea-green)

This naturally dyed, fingering yarn, was posted to Greece by the very polite owners of The Skye Shilasdair Shop in the Isle of Skye!

dragontail (rose)

I made two dragontail scarves, the blue one offered to a friend as a present (becaused she loved the color) and this water-melon colored-for me.

This pattern does not compliment this yarn as much as I would like, and the yarn is also a bit scratchy. But in any way, it is a very easy and very impressive pattern. I might give it a try with a bulkier, winter yarn.
