These are shots from the purl side, so the colour changes look a little awkward but it is a really pleasing sort of knit.
I made one small change to the wider red panel. I was dithering about stitch counts and ended up with a few extra rows of red. I didn't want to rip back so I decided to make it balanced and just kept on going. I'm really hoping I don't regret it.
I am about halfway through the last black lace panel and , as usual, I am worrying about running low on yarn. I really hoped there would be just enough black left to do the bind off with. A punch of black at the end of the red would be the loveliest way to finish it. I don't think that is going to happen though. I will be lucky to get through the black lace panel.
I have tons of the red lace left so there shouldn't be any problems with the last lace chart.
I think I am really going to like this shawl. If it is half as nice to wear as it is to knit...no problem.
