Knit from my own handspun, which was spun from South African Fine in colour way 'Joshua Tree' dyed by Spunky Eclectic. The shawl was knit using 3.75mm needles (yarnw eight was 6m/g) and using Evelyn Clarks pattern 'Flower Basket'. This has 14 repeats of the main pattern before doing the 10 row edging...Started last Tuesday (16th) and finished yesterday (21st) including blocking and arrived safely in Yorkshire today for my friend Mike to give to his mum....
Will do this pattern again at a future date....
Also completed for a Christmas present 'Lime Fire' a 3ply yarn.
Fibre from Spunky Eclectic and is Superwash Merino.

both are beautiful. enjoy the holidays.
I don't usually like pink lace, but your Flower Basket is really lovelt! Your handspun is cheerful, too!
I don't like pink either, but your shawl is absolutely stunning!
