This shawl is for my daughter.
Of all the colours she could have chosen, she chose charcoal grey!!
This is my back to show the stitch.. it was a free Ravelry pattern, South Bay Shawlette..a two row repeating pattern.
The wool is Berroco which is 50%wool, 20% alpaca and 30%nylon .. it feels quite heavy and is very warm. The colour is Salt and Pepper and I used a 5mm hook.. it took two 100g hanks, bought from Love Knitting..
Although I enjoy crocheting, I found this difficult to do because of the colour, but it was what she wanted... so I hope she wears it all day and every day and every blinging night too!!!
Happy Days.

PS. Having finished this I am enjoying my evening knitting a cardigan for myself while outside the wind is swirling round huge snowflakes!!

That looks nice and cosy, perfect for the snowy conditions recently.
This is a beautiful shawl. I know what you mean about the colour. love the colour but prefer to work with lighter shades for ease of seeing. Have a lovely weekend. x
