I told you a while back about a shawl I was knitting in gradient colours, following a pattern called BitterBlue. Well, now it’s done and I’m very happy with it. Because I chose not to block it, it’s between a large scarf and a small shawl in size. Blocking would make the points stand out more on the border and would make it larger, but I like how scrunchy the garter stitch is. Plus I just love the colours.
Here it is:
I did make some changes to the pattern – some planned and some inadvertent user errors – and you can read about those on my Ravelry project page, right here. The base yarn is really nice, and I realized that I have another kit from Earthfaire in the stash that came with the same yarn. I caked up the yarn for that project up, and will tell you about it next week.
What do you think of this one?
It is beautiful, love the colours. How do you wear this type of shawl?

It’s smaller, Eniko, so I’ll wear it like a scarf – probably with the widest part at the front and the ends wrapped around my neck. It’ll be a nice punch of colour on a chilly day!
