Greetings!

Hi everyone,

Thanks for letting me to join in the fun :-)

This KAL has come along at the perfect time for me. I have just finished spinning this

This is part of 650 m of laceweight Alpaca Silk.
This was a spinning experiment where I spun one ply of alpaca and another of silk and then plied them together.
I'm really pleased with the result :-)
The plan is to knit this up as an enlarged Swallowtail Shawl from Interweave. I just need to swatch to decide on needle size, work out how many extra repeats I need to do of the first chart to get the pattern right and I'm all set.
I'm really looking forward to seeing what everyone else is doing :-)
