rust
Spring is coming. It must be the warm sun and singing birds, the sound of snow starting to melt. Season is changing and i found myself longing for change too. So i decided to knit myself a shawl - a project which I've never done before. (Baby steps, nothing too radical.)
Pattern: Textured Shawl Recipe by orlane (Ravelry-link)
Yarn: Cascade Yarns Venezia Worsted
Needles: 6 mm
This yarn is so soft and slightly shiny. It was fun to work with, though with metallic needles it was a bit slippery. The pattern (or recipe) was easy to follow and i love the texture (it really is what is says). I think i would like to knit a bigger one some day.

Thank you all for your sweet comments!
So pretty! Congratulations on your first shawl. Be careful, though, they're addictive!
it looks great. I have been seeing a few of these on ravelry and have been debating on whether to make one. I think that i am now sold.
Thank you, britt and nicole!
