Yes - another Amari shawl! I did warn you that there would be more. I just hope I can sell them at the Curdridge Show in July. I now have quite a pile...
This one is in a pale pink, with a brown edging and is made from ICE yarn, a blend with 40% baby alpaca, 35% merino wool and 25% acrylic. I see that the pink has disappeared from their web site now, so I guess it's all sold out.
The yarn is light and warm and the finished shawl is like a cobweb - it's beautiful! I edged the lace edging with the same yarn, in brown...
I used the yarn double, on 4.5mm needles and it worked out OK. It was a bit resistant to blocking - I'm not sure why. Anyone else found alpaca a bit springy?

I'm begining to think you have a team of little elves that do your knitting while you sleep Penny. :-) They really are gorgeous.
