I had a hard time getting to sleep, at the yarn shop sleepover after Abby's class. My sleeping bag was musty from storage, someone was snoring, and I was wound up. Finally I got up and put my regular lavender-scented nighttime lotion on, and draped my new shawl over my face. It was soft and warm and comforting, and as I drifted off to sleep I decided that I liked it very much.
Beaded edge. I was planning a wide knitted border, and tried a few, but the shawl preferred this simple but elegant edge. Verity threaded the beads on the yarn for me, and I did a simple crochet chain/ single crochet border.

Just beautiful!
Looks wonderful! The 2/2 twill gives very interesting texture to it, and the beaded edge is perfect!
A beaded edge - what a great idea.
beautiful shawl and I am enjoying seeing the different wools you are spinning and your baby faces that just need to be kissed all over! :o)
Love the shawl, totally. And your locks, so beautiful.
