Lace, coral and chunky

I knitted this lace shawl with a pattern from Drops design in Drops Alpaca.  The shawl is knitted in two pieces and then sewn together. The pattern is free and is available in many languages, here is the link:

 The next project is already on its way, a chunky scarf with Drops Andes with moss stitch and a cable with bobbles. It feels really nice to see the work coming along so fast with the bigger needles, the lace scarf took me about three weeks to knit with knitting needles 3mm.

I finally bought this beautiful coral coloured yarn from Rowan. I fell in love with these designs from the Bird Ring collection by Ivana Helsinki and can´t wait to get knitting and see what I come up with.
