~mermaid shawl~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Lately, I've been getting back into knitting,
with some crochet thrown in as well.

I finished this shawl in June, but only blocked it recently!
Thankfully, my LYS, Things Remembered, has a huge blocking table for patrons.
This is the Cerasifera pattern on Ravelry (my project page here)
and Manos del Uruguay Serena in the Mermaid colorway.

~pre-blocking~

I'm going to have to take another picture of the shawl on my bed,
because it's not obvious how much this shawl grew.
It's easily twice as large!

And of course, if you finish something,
while you're at the LYS,
you might as well purchase something else.......
