Yarn: Joseph Galler Prime Alpaca - ivory? natural?
Needles: Size 4 Inox 24" circulars
I had a few problems getting started with this pattern. I haven't knit much lace, and at the beginning I didn't know what it should look like. So, when I screwed something up, I would end up ripping back two or three rows... Once I got a rhythm though, it was smooth sailing, and a pretty quick knit.
I wasn't sure how this pattern would end up looking with a sport-weight yarn, but I love it. I like that it's not so big, and that the stitches are close... Altogether a successful project!

Nice job, you even managed the nupps!!
Your shawl is so sweet! I love the ivory, I am on my second Swallow Tail. After finishing my first one I ambitiously thought I would knit 3 more for Christmas gifts and keep one for myself. I'm just at the nupps and was having 2nd thoughts, but seeing your little shawl has motivated me to keep knitting!
Lovely finish!!
I think the sportweight yarn looks fabuous!!
