Annis

Since I learned how to do short rows making my Abrazo shawl, I decided to continue the theme and knit another shawl by the same designer. It's called Annis. The construction is the same as for the Abrazo. You cast on lots and lots of stitches...maybe I should say hundreds and hundreds...363 to be exact, knit 18 rows of lace, and then knit the stockinette/short row portion. Block and you've got a very pretty shawl.

I am loving the Knit Picks lace yarn. This one is Gloss Lace. It's so reasonably priced and very nice.
Look at these nupps! This is a new skill I learned making this shawl. They are not hard to do, but require some patience, especially on the purl row when you have to purl 7 stitches together.
Despite that, this was a very quick project for me--10 days from cast-on until I took it off the blocking board. I think I'll be making more of these for Christmas presents.
