I’m making a dress! Eep!! I’ve only ever made one successful item of clothing before… So I guess it was a silver lining that I could stay in Denmark for a wee bit and get some tips from my mum! The trickiest parts have been sorted out but now I’m on my own with the rest..

And I’m going to make a shawl to go with the dress – the wedding is in Wales, after all, so I might need a bit of protection against the weather.. ;-)

But I’m having trouble finding a pattern for a shawl, so I was thinking.. maybe you have some suggestions? I’ll be using the yarn in the pictures. It calls for 2.5-3 mm crochet hook, so it’s not the thinnest yarn in the world.

I’d like a pattern that goes with the fabric: floral, feminine, quite open.. but also quick to make, because the wedding is in little over a month and I need to make the dress as well..

Any ideas? Any suggestions would be much appreciated!
