Frilled Cast On

Pinterest sent me a pin this morning that had something of interest for shawl cast ons.  The Frilled cast on.



I saved the site to which pinterest sent me to learn how to make this cast on in my book marks under the folder Knitting.  The suggestion on the site is that this pairs well with the picot cast off.

Wendy's Fern Shawl

Porch weather finally has hit.  I know it won't be every day yet and often it is too cool in the morning still.  But yesterday late afternoon and early evening was very nice on the porch.  I began thinking about starting summer projects.  I found a box labelled summer and chose a yarn that I like.

Tahki Yarns Luguna.  It is 78% Linen and 22% Cotton and is a nice soft natural looking color.  Next step is a pattern.  I chose Wendys' Fern Shawl.





I am knitting the project on size 8 needles.  It is not totally mindless but easy enough to take to knitting on Tuesdays.

I finished the shawl in July while Mary's family was visiting.  I like it a lot!
