For Monsoon Knitting I wanted to try something I hadn’t tried before and so I tried LACE!! Didn’t think that I would ever say that I absolutely loved lace knitting!!
I didn’t have any lace yarn with me but decided to make do make do with a couple of skeins of Koigu because the blues of the KPPPM were perfect monsoon colors and with lace knitting gauge does not really count, right?
So, I cast on for the Swallowtail Shawl and I loved every minute of knitting it, “nupps” and all. The shawl did not turn out too big but that’s ok cause it’s small enough to fit into my purse and perfect to wrap around chilly shoulders at the movies or at a restaurant.

Finito!
Unfortunately, the furniture is sporting my Swallowtail because I was too lazy to dig out the tripod.
