Evelyn’s new shawl

I’ve been haunting the Fiber Trends site to see when Evelyn Clark’s latest shawl pattern is released, and it’s available now.

I saw the shawl in person at the Madrona Fiber Arts Winter Retreat in January, and talked with Evelyn a little about it. It is stunning. Simple, but absolutely beautiful, and she said that it would probably be called the Angel Shawl or something.

Well, the Angel Lace Shawl has been released, and I have to say, the picture is all wrong.

This picture would not entice me to buy or knit this shawl. It doesn’t even look like the shawl that I remember. I will probably buy it anyway, because the shawl I remember is so very pretty. I highly recommend it if it’s the shawl I saw, but really, the picture is so different…

Birthday party #2 went very well, and even better than that, it’s over. I’m going to sleep. Tomorrow, I’m going to clean up the mess that is my house, and I’m going to spin.
