The End.
All right, not the end of the shawl--the end of the photo series. But the huge (size 20) needles are definitely the way to go when you're making a big, rectangular shawl. That last picture shows one evening's progress--not bad!
I also made this:
Skully (front and back), destined to be felted into a keychain. My first stranded colorwork! (Okay, so I started that thing for Grandma... Skully is my first finished stranded colorwork.)
And now it's late, and I need to go to bed.
I'll try to put more words in my next post!

Cool stuff! I know how hard it was to frog the shawl & start over but I think it looks prettier looser knit. And look how far you got! Love the skully too. What's it called when the other side is a reverse of the front? I saw something like that in a hat pattern but can't remember. There's some fancy knitting name, I know.

Mom,
I'm not sure what that's called, other than "reversible." If you find it you'll have to let me know!

Well, duh. I blame my head full of snot for not getting it. I even wrote "reverse" in my question. But it might have been in one of the Dulaan hat patterns I was looking at the other day. I'll check later.
Love, Mom
