Wendy's Fern Shawl

I finished my first Wendy's Fern Shawl and I like it a lot....the final photo is in an earlier post.  Because I am very distracted with hosting Mary's family, I decided to just make the same pattern again in some different yarn that was sitting out in my dressing room.  I am not sure that there is enough yarn in this color way.....but at least it is a summer project I can work on while we are sitting in the playroom.

I am using the same needles....size 8.  The yarn is:





The color way is 2108





I ran out of yarn at knitting on Tuesday and it is not nearly long enough.  However, when I played with it yesterday, I found that it is OK worn with triangle tip in back and just crossed over in the front.  That is good because I called all over the place and looked everywhere on-line with no success finding any more of this yarn in this color way.  So now I need to start one more summer project.

Ok...because it is fairly hectic around here, I am going to do one more Wendy's Fern Shawl in some more yarn that is in the fish bowl in my dressing area.









I liked the look of this scarf so much that I started one more Wendy's Fern Shawl.  This time the yarn is also Santorini but in a slightly different color way.  The yarn has been discontinued, so no need to make note of the color.

Didn't actually finish the final Wendy's Fern Shawl until my trip to see Mary in Peru in November.   I wore it to knitting the first Tuesday I was back:


As I already said there is no reason to add information about the yarn.  It has been discontinued.
I do have a small amount of yarn left so I will add that they manufacturer suggests size 7 needles and hand wash and dry flat.
