It's off the needles!
The Haapsalu shawl is off the needles! The last 32 rows were a challenge. 15 rows of 421 stitches in a lace pattern, bind-off, then cast-on another 421 stitches and do it all over again. I dropped a couple of stitches and had to tink back ~840 sts, but I made it and all the pieces are off the needles.
The next step is to sew the edging to the shawl. This is going to take a while, so I'll leave you with a photo of the pieces before sewing and blocking.

It's gorgeous & that's a lot of stitches. I just finished a square baby blanket & had more than 400 sts to cast off.
