Finished Orenburg Shawl


And finally the finished shawl. I like it sort of. I changed how I did the final row of edging because I thought it was necessary to do that, and as a result, it doesn't block like it should. But I can't bear to rip out that long row of edging.


This Orenburg shawl was set aside for such a long time,but the Knitting Olympics also stirred me to finish up some languishing projects. And a long car trip to and from Arizona gave me a lot of prime knitting time. Above are photos of what I finished on the road. The left picture shows that I've almost completed the third triangle point and am almost ready for the edging. The ball of "yarn" is wonderfully tiny!
