Knitted Shawls, IV


I finished my Creatures of the Reef shawl months and months ago, but I hadn't dressed it.  At last I have it dressed so that I can show what I did.  This shows the edge of the shawl, the crabs, seahorses, and the pretty shell edging on it.  It's quite different from undressed shawl on the previous page, isn't it?  It is a lot of trouble to pin out the shell edging all around the shawl, but I thought it was well worth the effort.
This shows the starfish and two fish rows that are in the shawl.  Between them are rows of bubbles.
This is the whole shawl, or what I can show you of it.  I think this, at the moment, is my favorite shawl.  At the very top of the shawl is the sea foam pattern.  I think those little scallops around the edge of the shawl make it look so feminine.
After I finished the Creatures of the Reef shawl, I decided I wanted to do the Sheep Shawl from Evelyn Clark through Fiber Trends.  So I did it in apricot Zephyr.  This photo doesn't show the real color of the shawl.  However, you can see the sun's rays at the top of the photo, then the orchard, the houses, and the sunflowers.
Here's the whole shawl, and the color is better here.  I think you can see the remainder of the shawl in this photo.  Below the houses and sunflowers, you can see grass, sheep, more grass, and the pointy edging.  This was a simple shawl to make.
