#ShowMeYourKnits WIP edition. Gossamer shawl by Woolenberry in Lola sock by Posh Yarn (who are no longer dying). The yarn π§Ά is 100% Grade A mulberry silk & as well as being so soft, it's really, really shiny so it's a nightmare to photograph (I've lost count at the number of attemptsπ¬) #knit

A woman stands holding a triangular shawl. The shawl has 3 bands of stocking stitch, worked in a variegated yarn of soft browns with flecks of reds, greens and yellows, and 2 bands of textured pattern, which are worked in a red yarn. There is a tassel at each of the shawl's points.
Finished my Yule shawl. Pattern is The Green Gold shawl by Moody Knitter Design. Yarn π§Ά is by Ducky Darlings. Bands of relaxing stocking stitch alternating with textured sections. The second section was rather labour intensive though. Altogether, an enjoyable knit.
