They lie! :-)<BR/><BR/>I've never seen a shawl with a rolled edge (that I can remember), and I think my preference would be an edge that doesn't roll, though I could probably be swayed when you show your great and beautiful results rolling the rest of the edge. (However, my inclination and vote would be to re-block, perhaps with pins...)YarnThrowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13261414607842071918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32804163.post-5618102328248377212008-05-19T14:54:00.000-05:002008-05-19T14:54:00.000-05:00Pretty, pretty!

I'll probably work this - when you've released the pattern ;-) - with a couple extra rows of garter, but in your sitch I'd 'spritz and roll' or 'spritz and flatten'. Whichever. <BR/><BR/>I finished Dazed and Confused, and I'll post photos when I've blocked it. This could be gi-normous after blocking, since it's done with 440 yds of KP Gloss on a US6 and is currently about 60in as knitted. ;DCatBookMomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13539824268008907535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32804163.post-52872630351206559142008-05-19T10:29:00.000-05:002008-05-19T10:29:00.000-05:00The shawl's really pretty.

I usually avoid this construction because of the "stair effect" along the edges (the stst portions before you have ennough sts to add another rep of the pattern), but I like it here.Archiknisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05398767954051138272noreply@blogger.com
