Current WIP: Wingspan Take 2

[untonuggan]

So I re-cast on for Wingspan (a shawl pattern that's been trending on Ravelry for awhile) after consulting with other dreamwidth knitters and someone in my LYS (local yarn shop). I'm much happier with it, and am also very happy that it's in worsted so it's going much faster than when it was in fingering. Yay for getting holiday knitting done fast. Am already 1.5+ triangles beyond what you see in these pictures.

I'm using Malabrigo Worsted, and if you're really interested in the colorway I can dig it out of my knitting bag. What you really need to know is that it's SQUISHY.


Variegated purple and pink triangles alternate to form the basis of a shawl on a blue blanket. Two balls of yarn used to knit the project are in foreground.


Close-up of the triangles and stitch-work, which is garter stitch.

Hopefully it will be done soon! Am so excited about this! And thank you, vae , for sharing your knitterly wisdom with me!

You're welcome, and I'm glad it helped! Yours looks so much more like what I was picturing than mine did ;)

(My yarn from the failed Wingspan is making a very successful Magrathea, which is also squooshy!)

SQUISHY is indeed the pre-emptive answer to my only question, hee!
