I decided to try and salvage the first shawl I knit on our trip. I didn't realize it was a thinner yarn, so it knit up too small. It seemed a waste to not be able to use it, so I'd been trying to figure out how to make it bigger, and decided to just crochet some extra stripes along the bottom, before outlining everything in black. So, now there's two almost done!
I've even tried dying some...using blue dye to kill the bright orange in the tartan below. It's uneven, but might be usable. But the search goes on.
Better get back to it!!
