Sidewalk Shawl Progress

Hi everyone, 

This is a short post, lest I never get around to posting at all. Busy Busy Busy down here lately but hoping to get more organised soon. :-)



So here are some pictures of my progress on the Sidewalk Shawl which I am crocheting for the CAL project on our Everything Zen group on Ravelry. 


I am using 10ply Luxury Yarn from Bendigo Woollen Mills in Autumn Glow which looks like a dark burnt orange colour even though the pics look a bit more red. I was a little worried about the bunching up to start with as this yarn was not the recommended yarn but I am hoping it will stretch out nicely in the end. 

Its a nice project to work on and is whipping up fast despite the fact that I have had to rip back several rows twice now due to distractions and leaving out just one stitch. Woopsy ;-P 


I also have a FO and an almost FO to show this week. That is of course if I can find the time to blog more often. LOL Well at least I am finally catching up with other things that need doing or finishing hey? 

Hope all is well for you and yours. Love and Light. 

Big hugs and smoochies xoxoxox

    Your shawl is looking beautiful, I love the colour you have used for it! The pattern looks quite tough, and looks like the type I would definitely mess up!

    The color you chose is by far my favorite. It looks great. You can see the detail so clearly. Mine bunched a lot until blocked, now it is fine. I am wishing I had used the color you chose. Lol. Beautiful.

      Thanks lovely. Your shawl is gorgeous. I think it looks great especially with the tassles on. :-) I liked that colour too but I knew I would probably wear this one more. I hope mine blocks up okay.

    I think that looks lovely in red, I think that it will open up nicely with blocking, can't wait to see it.
