Another shawl for the summer. I actually finished the knitting over a week ago, but I was too lazy to post about it.
So here it is, Pomegranate.
It was the first time using Wollmeise yarn for me. It's 100% Merino Superwash, in color Kurbis, using needle #6.
Wow I loved using this yarn for shawl. It stretched out effortlessly during blocking process into a lacy fabric. I didn't have to block it too aggressively, it just opened up beautifully with the loose gauge. The shawl turned out to be 70" wide x 12 1/2" tall. perfect.
Though the yarn may not be squishy as some other merino, but I like it. I'd definitely use it again for a shawl. And the famously beautiful and saturated dye job of the yarn barely had any dye ran in the soaking process, I was impressed.
Another beauty! You amaze me!
