Shawltastic!

After having said that I lost my knitting oomph, I finally found it again!

I made two lovely shawls in time for Nine Worlds...

The first one was the Firefly inspired saffron a shawl for leaving the maiden house

Not perfect, I made a few mistakes along the way, but still, it looks good on. And, as a first attempt I'm happy with it, and I'm not the only one...
The Boy loves it. So much so that I'm think I need to make him a cape, just so I can get my shawl back! 
















The second one was the Time Turner Shawl which was inspired by Hermione's time turner in Harry Potter. Although, because I used a self striping shawl, you can't actually see the pattern, which is a bit of a shame. But then again, it does look really pretty anyway, so I don't really mind!

So, I think I have now cracked shawls. Now, onto socks!!!
