Knitted Lacy Shawl Reviewed by Heather Munns on 2011-02-07 ****
I am making this shawl now. I did find starting on row 100 that it doesn't work correctly. Having to adjust to the correct stitches, it still is a great shawl. Just take a closer look, you'll see. Beautiful anyway. I guess that after corrections are made, I will rate this higher.
