Has swallowtail got nupps??
lindyloop

Yes it has nupps but you can put a bead there instead?

Ohh that's lovely Lindy.  What size did yours come out in sock yarn?  I made mine in a fine lace weight and it's really just a shoulder shawl.  Suitable under a coat but not as a wrap Sad

It goes to just middle of my bot so a good scarf size and just a good shoulder shawl size.

That is beautiful  Very Happy   You must be really pleased!

I've had mine on the go since we all went to GK last year (in fact, this time last year  Confused ) And I've not touched it since last August  Embarassed   If I remember I'm nupping and that's where I lost interest.

But, seeing your's finished....
