Diamond Fantasy Shawl



Diamond Fantasy Shawl

Pattern source : Sivia Harding
Yarn : Regia Silk Uni 02 Natur 3 balls
Needle : Addi Turbo 4 mm

I LOVE IT!!! The yarn is perfect, the pattern is great and super easy, even the size turns out perfect! I'm already wanting another one on my needles ;)

Meanwhile, I cast on for Flower Basket Shawl last night.

The yarn is Regia Silk again, the pattern is easy too. Should be perfect, right? Then why does it feel so wrong?
I love pink, I'm definitely a pink type of girl. Hey, I'm even wearing a pink nighties now! But this pink, I don't know why, I just can't stand it.
What do you guys think? Should I just keep knitting it then give it to my mom? Or should I frog for the best and get rid of the yarn?

Anyway, thanks SO MUCH for all your compliments on Orangina. I always wanted to be the type of blogger who reply to every comments, but how could I do that if most of them are coming from no-reply comments? Oh, blogger...

OK. Diamond Fantasy shawl is HOT! I'm with you on the pink though. I'm big on pink myself but I think this color is dying to be a tank top or an accessory (showy scarf or something, headband...?). I don't think it want's to be a shawl or wrap. Something about this pink seems wrong for that.

I LOVE your diamond shawl, beautifup!

And I love that color pink! Pink is my fav color but I know what you mean, some pinks are just not right.

Your diamond shawl is perfect! I like the smaller size, you can wear it in any occasion.

I think you should just finish your new shawl. You may just like it after it's all done.

DFS is perfect, I think I should knit one. The BFS is also perfect that I have finished one.

Yes, Yuvee, it is perfect! It looks great in that creamy colour. The pink is sweet too, not as sophisticated as the cream, but definitely sweet.

It's so pretty! If you don't like the pink one you still knit it and send it to me hehe...

I agree, the pink is odd.

If you click on people's names, it should take you to their profile and then you can click on their site. Not easy for an email reply, but better than nothing!

Awesome! Your shawl turned out great girl! And I think that pink is pretty. May be it'll grow on you later.

Your Diamond shawl is beautiful!! It think you should continue making the FBS... as long as you like the feel of the yarn. Otherwise... maybe get rid of the yarn.

Hi!
Your DFS is awesome. Really beautiful.
I'm not sure about the pink, it's because I've never seen a wrap in pink. If you like the yarn and the color, might as well try it.
