Last night I did the final (beaded) row of In Dreams, and cast off. I thought I mgiht not make is, as I knocked over a whole shot glass of beads, all over the floor beside my knitting chair, though most might have ended up amongst my knitting bags. I had some spare, and used these though, didn't want to waste knitting time on my hands and knees picking up beads!
Here's proof it's done, hanging from the mantelplace as Mr C was not around. I've grafted the neck edges together but of course it's not blocked yet. Just a whole mass of red shawl. :)
I'm probably not going to be blocking it over the weekend - I fancy a stash diving day, when I shall hunt down some lone sock yarn for a small shawl! And possibly cast on some fingerless gloves? It'll be odd not working on this over the weekend!
What a relief to have it finished! Have you got a space big enough to block it on?You won't know what to do with yourself now that is finished.........
