Rather Fuzzy Seascape Shawl
It's done. Here are a few photos.
I think it turned out quite well. You can just barely see the beads, but they are at the edges and within the center of each motif.
I was a bit anxious if my hard-to-please MIL would like it.
Well ---
She did.
I wrapped in tissue and put it in a box, so she would have a nice "gift opening" experience.
When she saw it, she said "how pretty".
Then she said it must have been a lot of work.
Then she wore it the rest of the evening.
I told her I would keep the temperature of the house low so she would *have* to wear it (cause she's totally the type who would put it away and save it for a "special occasion").
So I am calling it a success.
More details are available at Ravelry. Here.
