Luna Moth

Ah the joys of the provisional cast-on. Brilliant idea, pain in the rear to figure out. However i persevered and successfully cast on the Luna Moth Shawl for the elann KAL (button to right). Its actually amazing to me how these positive and negative spaces come together to create beautiful pieces of wearable art. Those that design them are demi-gods in my book. I can knit what others have created, I don't think i'll ever be able to be the creator. Birth might actually be easier (haven't tried that out yet either).

Here is my progess after on repeat. I will update as it comes along.

I love Shine yarn. It makes great washcloths too. Can't wait to see your shawl. Since it won't size bigger after blocking (or not much anyway), you might want to add another repeat. But see how it goes!

It's me again...wondering how your Luna is?

Luna is going well. I am up to the 4th repeat. I've been very busy with graduations, weddings, showers, babies, getting my yeard and pool ready, which will hopefully be finished this weekend so i can get this shawl done and pick out the next. I will post a picture update later.
