Japanese Feather Shawl



I was feeling so cocky after finishing my Branching Out scarf that I immediately cast on with laceweight yarn for a stole (or maybe wide scarf) in the Japanese Feather pattern.

It's 56 stitches across and 28 rows to complete each repeat. I got to row 22 last night (with bleary eyes and a couple of mistakes) and this morning managed to ball it all up, so I ripped it all the way out and started over again. I finally made it to row 28 just before dinner. Will I survive this? Time will tell!

The Branching Out looks great and you will conquer Japanese Feathers I am sure!

I think I may be knitting that pattern soon as well as I've agreed to make it as a sample for a yarn dyer.
