Convertible

Project:  Convertible Wrap, free from Knitty
Time Needed:   This one took forever, well over four years.
Materials Used: 5.5 skeins of Knit One, Crochet Two's Handpainted Ambrosia


I really like the concept of the finished project, but had many issues with the shawl itself.  For whatever reason, the pattern was not intuitive, and I was not able to memorize it.  This caused it to take literally forever to finish.  Also, I had to abandon the buttonholes I'd made & pushed the buttons through the garter stitch at the edges instead.  Perhaps I need bigger buttons.  It is quite a nice finished project, though, and I could see myself making something similar using a very, very different lace pattern.  I am so very, very glad this is finished.
