Finished!

[aunty_marion]

I've finished my Ravelympics Ishbel shawl! It's now pinned out on the bed, and will shortly be either flipped over and repinned, or (more likely...) covered with another towel so I can steam press it to block it. (It's acrylic - so sue me - so it can't be wet-blocked as normal.)

Oh that's lovely. What are the measurements?

[aunty_marion]

I did the large stocking stitch section and the large lace, and it's come up at about 62 inches from corner to corner along the long edge, and about 22 inches deep.

Oh that sounds lovely. Good choice.

Wow! Very nice. I'd love to see a picture of what it looks like being worn, since it's larger than the ones I've seen in person.

That might have to wait till I can recruit someone to take a photo of me - my only full length mirror is a bit small for me to get a good picture in it!

That's a good kind of problem to have! It really is such a beautiful piece.
