Pointless !!!

Or should I title this post cotton candy? That is what this shawl looks like.

Here are the FO's to the recent Forest Canopy made for a dear family friend. I purposely blocked it without pulling out the points. My original plan was to put some type of scalloping on the edge. I tried three different scallops. Neither one moved me. I really like the no point/no scallop/no fancy edging. Call me crazy but I do. I'm not a pointy kind of gal.

The ball bands to this yarn were tossed long ago. I only had about three skeins of it. It appears to be a mohair and nylon with something blend. In any case, I am pretty pleased with it. I will be shipping this off today or tomorrow.







Happy Holiday Knitting to all !

The shawl is sooo pretty. I crocheted a shawl instead of ending with a point I ended up with a square 0_o.
