With all the wonderful designers out there looking into making this shawl – with no still photos – here is a new trailer with a much better view of my knitting lust!

exciting! but…also confusing. i think i like the etsy interpretation just a wee bit more.
I’ve been seeing a lot of designers working on this and I kinda love them all! 🙂
Cannot wait for it!!
Me neither! My niece is jumping around wanting a bow and arrow…I don’t know whether to be excited or terrified!
Haha somewhere between the two? My sis is the same…
I saw it! although I think the back looks a little wonky to be honest. I guess it’s supposed to be all postapocalyptic and stuff 😛
I think so too, it almost looks like there is a hidden clasp back there. I think the draping of the designs I have seen are an improvement on something awesome!
Really didn’t see it much in this trailer unfortunately. FYI,I’m still in yarn selection phase; I haven’t forgotten about you.
Oh no worries! Believe it or not I tend to lean towards the patient side of the spectrum 🙂
Good! Thanks so much! I really appreciate your initiative in designing this.
Invitation? That is a very, very lovely way of begging people with far more talent than myself to help me out! 🙂
There were just glimpses of it. And I think I like the etsy version better also!
I still cannot wait to see what everyone else comes up with – it has been so much fun to watch!
I haven’t forgotten! I picked up the rope, I just haven’t had a chance to start on it yet. Soon…I promise!
No worries!!!! 🙂
I’m about halfway done…but I need a picture of you or something so I can better judge the measurements. Basically need to know how big around to make it at the widest point. I’m huge so don’t want to base it on myself or it will fit you like a horse blanket. LOL
for some reason, i’m having trouble posting this reply. If it comes through 3 times, i’m sorry! I’m about halfway done with this pattern, but need to know an approximate size to make it… I’m huge, so if I go by me it will fit you like a horse blanket! Do you have a picture I can use to judge the size? or can you let me know an approximate size? looking for the widest point around…
thanks!
Widest point – I am a 42DDD. My shoulders are a little broad from rowing but it’s the chest area that is gigantic! I doubt you are huge, and I’d rather have something loose then clinging to my chest – I never outgrew being self-conscience about it.
Hmm, ok. I guessed and went with 19.5″ between shoulder seams, which should be about a size 16/18, but will add a few more rows to make it extra roomy in the shoulders – it actually doesn’t close around the bust completely so should be ok there 🙂
Thanks!! So excited!
Can’t wait to see the pictures. It is always amazing how differently people address the same design!
I am so excited….like a kid on Christmas Eve excited!
