More views of Autumn Grace, FO 2006-10

Thank you very much for the overwhelming response to the previous post. The last day has been unbelievable and your comments have been quite wonderful.

Here are a few more views of Autumn Grace:

Blocking


Scrolls at the center of the shawl


Border and leaves

And here's one more view that was alarming at the time:

DON'T PANIC

Note the caption on the photo--this is typical for silk. There's nothing wrong with the yarn, the dye, or the dyeing process. That's according to Cherry Tree Hill as well as other information that I read on Knitter's Review Forums.

After blocking and drying, I compared the shawl with the leftover yarn and it was not noticeably lighter in color. Good to know. I wish I knew it at the time because believe me, I panicked.

But it's all good. I learned something about silk. Next time I'll be prepared and maybe even have a bottle of white vinegar at the ready.
