Icarus

Icarus is finished. And beautiful. I finished the shawl on Thursday and then wove in the ends and wet-blocked on Friday.

Here Icarus is blocking - I used blocking wires for the top and then pinned out each individual point. I actually used a ruler to make sure all the points were pulled out in a row.



Here's a close-up: semi-artistic shot.



Here's me wearing the shawl



And here's the shawl meeting the Yarn Harlot! (who is holding one of my final exam socks, which I finished right before her talk). She complimented my Icarus. I was so proud.



Last two photos taken by the lovely purlewe.
