It is absolutely beautiful...I love this pattern and your yarn was just scrummy!! My crafty resolution for 2007 is to have a go at lace knitting! Smile

have to agree, it's absolutely beautiful!

Can I jump in on the 2007 lace knitting resolutions? I had a go a few months ago which ended tragically with frogging and I need to be re-enthused ...

We could have a lace knitalong - no particular pattern, just has to be some lace?

It's just stunning. I made my first ever lace shawl last year (much smaller than yours) so I know the sort of work and time that must have gone into it!

I've started something up in Knitalongs for us lace novices so we don't hijack Carola's thread completely Very Happy

Beautiful Carola - I'm encouraged that you enjoyed doing it.... There's hope for me - I'm off to read the lace knitalong!
