Dotted Rays - Speckled Fade

Stephen West has a new pattern. Dotted Rays - Speckled Fade (purchased on Ravelry).
This top-down shawl is a colorful variation of the original Dotted Rays design. Choose 5 or 6 colors and create your own gradient by striping the colors together using the Speckled Fade color technique. Westknits shortcut rows with yarn over holes form the long curved shape. Select between the multiple border options and knit a large or super large sized shawl.

The main difference between this variation and the original is the chevron border option.

This shawl excites me. My shawl will have the chevron edging. I think it finishes off the shawl really well.

Our next shipment from Hedgehog Fibres has been packed and delivered to the post office in Ireland. We should see it the first week of January. I wasn't thinking - I should have asked them to take pictures of our Potluck colours and send them to me.  I don't know if I can wait :)
I'm having fun knitting Find Your Fade. I hope to get to the next colour tomorrow but realistically it will be Saturday.

Don't forget that we're in the store tomorrow from 10-7 and then 10-2 on Saturday. Don't get caught with time off of work and no knitting.
