Well, I'm proud to say that the Triangular Summer Shawl from Nancy Bush's Estonian Lace book is now finished! Despite a few troubles early on with dumb mistakes like dropped stitches, one too many or one too few stitches, etc (all my doing, not the pattern), things evened out nicely and I ended up really liking the pattern. Here are some pictures of the final product!
