Hyrna Herborgar

After my little set back with my cardigan,  I had to use all my will-power not to cast on a new project.  It was hard,  but I thought it was high time I finished this shawl.  Besides,  with something finally off my needles,  I would be able to look at new patterns with a guilt free conscience.

This is Hyrna Herborgar from the book Three-cornered and Long shawls,  knitted in Jamieson's Ultra, colour Frosted Grapes.  I found it quite easy to knit (i.e. I could happily be interrupted without fear of losing concentration).

My cardigan is almost finished too  (the extra ball of KHS   I received was a good match) with just the seams to do and, after a special trip to buy the buttons,  it will be ready for your eyes!...

Beautiful work! Must remember to try and get hold of that book. I'm looking forward to seeing your cardigan also.

This is absolutely gorgeous Françoise! Bravo! Je me demande bien comment c'est possible de créer une aussi belle texture... Et toi tu as trouvé ça "quite easy"! :)

Gorgeous comme ils disent les américains. J'adore ce modèle, il est d'une élégance rare. Tu l'as bien réussi, et la couleur que tu as choisie lui va à merveille. Tu as mis 2 ou 3 pelotes d'Ultra ?

I shall not frighten you by trying to use my school girl French!!! Bagus Sekali!!! Very beautiful shawl. It is so delicate and a lovely colour!!!

Mais il est fini ! Donc tu peux déjà au moins faire l'échantillon du suivant (tout en finissant ton cardi). Franchement, ce modèle est superbe et tu l'as fort bien réussi dans de fil. Ce bouquin regorge de très beaux modèles et je soupire d'aise quand j'en vois un naître comme le tien... tiens au fait, il est où mon Tree-Cornered ?... heu... non, j'arrête.

First I lost my breath, what a beautiful shawl! Thank you for showing this eye-candy!

This looks so intricate, wouldn't have thought that it was easy to knit :) It's beautiful, especially the fan-shaped lace at the edging.

[Françoise]

Magnifique ! il n'y a pas d'autre mot !!
Bravo !

That is a beautiful shawl! Well worth the wait and I bet that you're really pleased now that you've finished it and not been waylaid!
Love the colour too.

Stunning. The work and the color. Brava.

Wow, what a beautiful shawl and it looks so romantic. For me it really doesn´t look easy to knit, the pattern is so delicate and so much different laces. Wonderful work and a gorgeous item for cooler autumn days. Congratulations!

The shawl is absolutely beautiful. You have shown great self control not to launch in to another project .

[Marie]

What a beautiful shawl. Your precision is outstanding. I also love the blue. You must be feeling VERY proud of yourself (and deservedly so).
