Here it is before blocking.
I love wet blocking to open up lace and create a little drama.
See how those double-yarn-overs open up!
I love this shawl for its simplicity while knitting and the impact it makes as a finished object.
My guess is this is about 250 grams and a good size.
Now I all I need is some cooler weather so I can wear it. Details, including the pattern and yarn source can be found in my Dotted Rays Update post from July 2020.
