I started this shawl on Mar 3, 2007 and finished it on Mar. 9, 2007. I'm planning on making the next one larger by doing 19 reps on chart 2 vs 14 reps. This was really fun to knit and the nupps were not as bad as I thought they were going to be. I used my working needle and a dpn held together when I did the yo's. This kept them loose enough to do the purl 5 tog on the next row, and it didn't slow me down that much. My next Alpaca project will be a scarf from the Artic Lace book using Alpaca Cloud from Knitpicks.

Holy super-speed! I wish I could make a lace shawl that quickly, and that beautifully.
Great FO :)
Whew, no kidding. And I thought I was fast getting a pair of socks done in 7 days!
Wow, did you stop to eat? That is gorgeous, love the choice of color and yarn with that pattern.
that's beautiful...I've always admired that pattern.
Wow, you finished the Swallowtail shawl in six days? I spent a month doing mine. Yours is so beautiful. I like the color too. I can`t wait to see your next alpaca shawl.
Six days? Wow. I just cast mine one, but I don't think it will go that quickly. Any advice for the nupps? Everyone seems to do theirs a little differently.
