Lily of the Valley Revealed
Here she is... my Lily of the Valley, done in Textiles A Mano cotton/rayon (I have misplaced the trade name).
I absolutely love this shawl, and so did the members of my quilt guild when I showed it off at our monthly meeting last night. The pattern looks much more complicated than it really is, and after the first set, I had determined that I could readily follow it. It made up quickly, and I want to try some variations again soon. The photo was taken by Sharon at the fair on Friday, but when I sized it up so you could see better, I lost even more quality than the original low light conditions. I need to do a real photo shoot to do her justice, but wanted to quell the rising rumors that she didn't really exist... I might have imaginary friends but I DO have a real shawl, which is a delight as the nights have taken on a bit of a chill, moving towards fall.

Such a lovely lady - and delicate. You make me wish I was a shawl person, but I'm afraid it would just end up in my closet with the sweaters. Absolutely eye candy!
