Scotty's Place

I finished this shawl last night at 9:00. The edging took me much longer than I anticipated because I decided to go with a frilly one. This shawl just started out being something simple and easy to get me out of the rut I was in, but I fell in love with it while crocheting it and wanted a really nice edging for it.

This is called a Filigree Shawl and you can find the pattern HERE. I don't know why it's called that...it's not my idea of filigree, but whatever. I guess when I write a pattern I can call it whatever I want to too. I've also seen patterns for shawls like this called Half-Granny Square Shawls. After the first two rows, I was off and running without the pattern. It was perfect for a mindless project. You can't see it very well, but that green color is flecked with different colors.

I just thought this picture was cool so I included it too. You can see the flecks a little better in this one. I used Hobby Lobby's ILTY in Dark Country Blue (18 oz), and Red Heart SS in Frosty Green Fleck (6 oz) and J hook.

I'm off to drink coffee and look for my next project.
