Just finished MMario's Queen Annes Lace!!! Took me four months to makeit so im super excited to have it done!!! I used 3 skeins of Knit Picks Gloss Lace in the Cyan colorway and it turned out beautiful!!! I would so knit this pattern again although after this behemoth of a project I think im going to take a break from lace for a little while and knit a few pairs of socks! HAH! Here is a photo of the shawl blocking, darn near took up the entire room! I hope everyone had a good holiday and ate lots of yummy food!!!

Excellent job! The QAL was a fun knit, and I've been meaning to do another too. I get sidetracked so easily though. Knitting does that. :-)

Gorgeous color. Great

Gorgeous color. Great knitting.

Question: Who is the recipient? Did you knit this for yourself? I have made 2 QALs, and I had so much fun that I want to make another, but I don't really have anyone that I can make one for. The women in my family just aren't shawl people.

If you have or know someone

If you have or know someone with connections to an "up-scale" charity auction - donate one...

I say "up-scale" because most local charity auctions don't get enough for a shawl to make the donation make sense...

You chose a lovely colour and knitted it beautifully. The shawl is stupendous and it is such a great pattern. I have never seen one I didn't like. Who is the lucky recipient or are you going to use it??
