Armed with a Christmas gift card from my son, I picked up this yarn at "A Stitch in Time" in Bethel, Connecticut. I instantly fell in love with a display of this pattern in the store. I had seen the pattern here on ravelry, but a heaver weight of yarn was used.
The pattern, called for Size 6 (4mm needles) was very easy to follow and was a quick project to knit up. The Boboli Lace is a light weight, slightly under-spun yarn. It give the perfect texture and fabric for the shawlette/scarf. You do, however, need to be careful with dropped stitches.
I was a little discouraged with the finished size, but I was able to block it out to the proper size with my new blocking mats. I was delighted to see how far the kerchief stretched out.
This is the perfect project for a quick knit gift and I can see making it again and again.
