I've been working on the Fiber Trends Pacific Northwest Shawl since November. It was supposed to be a Christmas gift for my mother-in-law, but, well, that didn't happen. I finished the body of the shawl on Christmas Eve, but I completely underestimated how long the edging of the shawl would take.
Anyway, here it is all done and blocking. I do have a blocking board, but the shawl won't fit on it. I'm deathly afraid of pinning the shawl to the bed, since we have one of those Sleep Number beds (a gift from the best in-laws ever), and I'd hate to puncture anything vital. You can see the shell edging peeking out from between the books. I'm going to have to block it a couple more times at least - once to get the edging pinned out properly, and another time to make sure the edges of the shawl are straight. Now that's love :)
