Alpaca Silk Shawl

Description

This is the shawl I crocheted from my handspun alpaca-silk yarn. It has been blocked and is at final dimensions. If you want to see what it looked like before, please go to [link] .

As far as total time spent on this, I've no clue. Spinning was about 6-8 hours. Crocheting I didn't count as all of it was done in the car traveling (hubby driving).

Final dimensions: 55in across by 27in from nape to middle point

All irregularities in the hang are due to the position of the person wearing it (me), not the shawl.
Top section is the view from the rear, bottom section is view from the front. The inset is front view with arms tucked in to show hang.

Shawl status: Sold.

Rather gothic and batlike, I think. Very nice.
