Mirth in the Garden


Better colours in the daylight, as promised. The shawl looks great after blocking and feels light but warm and cosy on my shoulders.


It even goes quite well with one of the t-shirts I made and dyed earlier in the summer, and the indigo-overdyed linen trousers I made over last weekend (just visible below).

My son took these photos, which is why the back point isn't too centrally positioned above. But - a very satisfying and useful project this has proved.

Ooo that does look warm and cosy! the evenings are beginning to get a bit chilly, so it's just the job. I can't knit for toffee so am in awe of your skills!
