Today I wore my second completed shawl, and how I love the colours!  I’ve actually ordered a pair of shoes in the same green too- won’t that look nice.

I find when I wear it at the front it doesn’t fall off my shoulders when I bend down, which happens a bit when I wear it at the back.  Though it probs looks better worn at the back…

And another odd thing- for this one I had to alter the pattern slightly to get it to turn out the correct shape- which is strange because I didn’t have to do that for the first one I made.  Surely I read something wrong or misinterpreted something somewhere.  But all I had to do to alter it was to do an increase stitch in the first and last stitches of each round, so not a problem.
