Isn't She Lovely......

Just wanted to show off another shawl I knitted. This one was for my sister for her birthday. I used Shaeffer cotton yarn, Florence Nightingale colorway. The green, blue and purple colors are very vibrant. It looks great against black or denim colors.
This is a close up view to see the colors and pattern. It's an easy drop and garter stitch row pattern. Mindless knitting as far as the pattern goes, but I can't knit something for someone without thinking of them the whole time.

Enjoy your birthday and think once or twice of your favorite younger sister (me).

Ciao!

Wanted to let you know that I have begun to knit again..... of course I have had to rip apart my start of just a plain little scarf 4 times but it has been so relaxing to sit in the big chair with a glass of wine and a little "sex and the city" on and knit away. Miss you my best of friends~~ hugs, Laura

Thank you my dear sister. I love my shawl. I received many compliments when I wore it to church. I hope you had good thoughts of me as you were knitting. Your kindness and thoughtfulness touches me.
Your favorite sister.
