Bummer.
So the shawl continues, but, I’m ambivalent about how it’s going. I randomly alternated the first two colors together so it wouldn’t be so abruptly stripey, but I’m not sure that it’s a good effect. Here are the colors. Here’s the shawl begun. Here it is in its current state. There are two more colors to go, plus a half a ball of the purple you see on the bottom edge. The first two colors blended all right, but I think it’s going to be an abrupt change in the middle there, and I’m not sure it’s going to work. I’m considering frogging it (ripping it out).
This really doesn’t seem like the kind of thing the intended recipient wears, so maybe I should hang onto this yarn for socks or something.
Opinions?

I think it’s pretty, but this could just be my insane jealousy over not being able to create anything that another person wouldn’t discreetly throw in the trash.

Hee hee! I didn’t say she wouldn’t, I just would like to THINK she wouldn’t going into it.

hmm
does this person know you are knitting it for them? if so ask them.. if not.. well personally I think the colors really go well. i think you might be being too critical. but then you might just want the yarn for you… i think its lovely. really nice color migration.. and personally i prefer the outside of the shawl to get darker and darker so it shows less dirt.
