I'm a Winner!

Ravelry, a group for all those who love playing with yarn, issued a challenge for members during the Winter Olympics.

We were to challenge ourselves to complete a project.

I chose to knit a shawl with lace inserts.

Iridil, designed by  Lara Smoot.

The lovely yarn was dyed especially for the event by Indiewayarns, and called Bolshoi Lights.

I challenged myself to complete the shawl within two weeks.

I took five days!

I'm so pleased with the result!
