the orange drape is finished!
it has a double edge and therefore it became a little curly. the edge i also made a little different than is written in the pattern and instead of three rows, i have made four rows of medallions.
the shawl drapes beautifully and i think it will be quite chic in a natural color. it’s an easy pattern to follow with good charts, but i did not really have fun making it and so i was glad i was done with it, not sure why. the pattern is from the 2012 vogue knitting crochet special, which i have on my ipad.
as usual, i have too many pictures a serie of pictures for you to see, i’m curious to your opinion about the drape.
if you like, just click on the photos to see them in a larger size.
joining the wonderful creative friday at natural suburbia
hope you will have a lovely and sunny weekend!

Prachtig! Zo te zien is het ook heerlijk om om je heen te draperen; het valt erg mooi – super!

it is beautiful – and really drapes well…I may just have to make myself one, although I am not as bold as your Mum and may have to go for black…

It’s beautiful. It’s got a lovely drape to it, so delicate and pretty 🙂

absolutely beautiful!

Very lovely. I think a white or natural would be nice but the orange is nice too. Glad you were able to push through and finish!

This is the one of the most beautiful pieces I think I have ever seen! The color you have chosen is absolutely exquisite and when I saw your pictures I was attracted to this piece immediately. Its such a sunny, happy piece and makes me want to smile. Lovely work. ❤

I think it’s gorgeous – the drape is perfect for a wrap. 🙂

It does drape beautifully! The orange color looks delicate in this style, not at all overwhelming the way orange can be sometimes. Nice results, even if the process wasn’t exciting.

I always enjoy visiting your site!!

I like this so much. You crochet beautifully, and the color combination is striking. I would never think to combine colors the way you do, but I wish I did! You seem to have a knack for feeling what colors will work together.
