#gradient shawl

[continent-of-wild-endeavor]

Time lapse of this shawl project so far.

Had yarn, made swatch to choose a needle size that produced a nice fabric (also made a heart bc why not).

Frogged swatch, creating yarn ramen.

Progress.

More progress, with netting section, and the last time I was able to spread it out without taking it completely off the needles.

She's done! Now she's getting jammed in my little salad spinner for a bath, then I guess pinned out on the spare bed to block.

WIP Wednesday - Fun With Gradients 2

Another gift for a friend, made using a lovely gradient cake. I like this yarn composition much better than the previous gradient cake I used - will definitely be getting more some day! Sadly, not even half-way done yet :/

WIP Wednesday - Fun With Gradients

I’m making a gift for a friend using (for the first time) a proper gradient cake. Things I have learned so far:

1250m is possibly too much for a shawl. Next time I’m getting 1000m. Though we’ll see what the final size is.

3 ply I think would have been enough, though 4 ply is also ok.

There are gradient cakes and there are gradient cakes. Fiber composition (for me) makes the difference between an enjoyable project and ‘how much more of it is there?!’

Please, can I have all yarn coming in cakes, because the wonders of a center-pull are life changing.
