Diamond Knit Shawl Reviewed by Clare Ague on 2010-01-17
I have knit this shawl twice as in the Prayer Shawl Ministry book II. The finished product is beautiful - my favorite color being the waterfall, come up great. This is a time consuming project and requires a lot of concentration and counting, but well worth it!
