Glenda ~Red Moon Rising Shawl by Kelene Kinnersly Georgian Bay Fibre Co. Bayfield DK in Big Sound Squall, and eventually Franklin Island Lichen (I think) Started this while I was away, but messed up the ‘straight’ edge, so had to rip back a ton ~Inspired by Ruby Tuesday by Ewa Durasiewicz. I showed this last time, but then I pulled it all out and started over so that I could alternate skeins Had to start over THREE times to get this far because I kept messing it up Keeping the general look, but I will add the neck and button bands last. Added short rows to the upper back to build up the neck, will probably add more near the bottom. Aiming for ¾ sleeves.
