After a disasterous lace frogging session I have finished something successful!
It was in Oxford kitchen yarns sock yarn in Gold.

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  _________________

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

That is beautiful 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 ) And I've not touched it since last August If I remember I'm nupping and that's where I lost interest.
But, seeing your's finished....
