Emma's yarn order for the #LittleWaveletShawlKAL
Border completed and moving on to short rows in next shade!
Short rows growing!
Short rows nearly done!
Short Rows completed and back to Shade A
Started the third shade and my wavelets are growing!
A few more waves worked shade 3 and I've nearly used all of shade 2!
Loving the shade transition from purples to greens!
On to my last mini skein and the blue waves are starting to appear!
As I ended up working 8 additional main pattern rows, I ran out of yarn with only a few stitches left to cast off!
Luckily I had some shade 4 yarn remaining.
Cast off now complete! Next step is blocking.
Wet blocking my Little Wavelet Shawl
Wet shawl carefully placed on dry towel
Rolling wet shawl in dry towel to gently press out excess water
Damp shawl laid out on foam blocking mat and now "patiently" waiting for my shawl to dry!
My completed KAL shawl!
