I really love the pattern, its really easy and so very effective. I would however do the large shawl - was worried I wouldn't have enough yarn so opted for the medium size.
The yarn- {oh the yarn! are there words for that colourway?} - is just exquisite! This club came as two self striping colourways. Carle dyed them inspired by a wood fire - so one colour way is the reds of the flames and the other the glow of the coals. Just genius!
This my 10th Shawl in 2011 - still busy with the border of my 11th. I have to say that the progress is rather slow..and I am considering putting it aside for a bit and knitting something else....

Love it!!
10 shawlsT! That is fantastic! Do you sell them or do you wear them all yourself? I am beginning to appreciate the importance of working with good materials (whether paper, wool, fabric, paints, etc.) - it makes such a difference to the finished project. When I experiment (which is most of the time) I feel I simply can't waste the good stuff. But then, if it turns out okay and I like it, I want to kick myself for not having started with better 'ingredients'!
i just love the colors! very beautiful!
the colors are very very well chosen, and i LOVE that shawl (usually i'm with solid colors but this is said from the bottom of my heart) congratulations on another beautiful piece of art !
