I did it! Finished the 10 shawls in 2010 challenge. Here are my last three shawls.

Deciduous. This is a Sheepy Time Knits pattern. I saw Mandie wearing it at Sock Summit and immediately thought of how much I'd like to make it in autumn foliage colors.



Terra. I dyed some worsted BFL/merino/kid mohair from an Oregon farm that had been sitting in my stash for a few years. I really love how it knitted up into a dense, cozy, yet fairly lightweight fabric.



Skuld. I wasn't sure about the long skinny shape while I was knitting it, but once I put it on, I thought it was awesome. The silk/merino blend is so airy yet warm.

Embarassment Thanks, mamas! My husband took about 20 photos of the Terra so I was getting goofy by the end. Turned out to be my favorite picture. Smile

Scarlet,
They're all beautiful, but I really love the shade of purple. That color is just gorgeous on you!
