Knit Picks Candle Flame Shawl


Part of my order from KnitPicks is the yarn for the Candle Flame Shawl. Can't wait 'till it gets here.
If I remember right, I ordered a Shimmer yarn in Turquoise. The stitch is described as reminiscent of Peacock Feathers. I love to knit with Alpaca and Silk. How much better could this possibly be?
When (IF) it gets finished, the problem will be if I can really part with it and give it to it's intended victim. She better be pretty 'good' between now and Christmas, or her birthday, depending on how long this takes me to finish.

Have I ever mentioned my lifelong aspiration to be the world's fastest knitter? Of course, most people that know me would describe me as more in the turtle speed range..........
