Feeling Blue

My WIP Wednesday project this week is Emma Fassio's Azzu's Shawl. When a saw a pic of it on Ravelry I thought it was so pretty I had to make one. I chose Blencathra yarn from Nimu which is so soft and light, it's just beautiful.
I rarely use blue yarn, I tend to be pulled towards warm colours, reds and oranges especially but I spend quite a bit of time in jeans and so have a fairly 'blue' wardrobe. I have chosen 'denim' as the colour way anyhow, so it'll be 'matchy' with lots of my clothes.




  Just a quick add on because I have recently discovered the Yarn Along with Ginny and I really want to take part. I'm currently reading Afterwards by Rosamund Lupton, it's completely intriguing, I can't wait to find out how it ends.

  5. What a clever pattern - combining all the good things about a shawl and a scarf! And you're tight, it'll go with everything in that lovely blue!
