Owlie Shawl//Finished Object Friday

Friday again, and I have a finished object!!! I finally finished my Owlie Shawl - all in it took just over a month although I frogged it twice before that. I have to say that photographing it was nearly as much fun as knitting it:
 I love how the colours have come out and although there are a few tiny issues, this is definitely my favourite finished object ever - and the owls are just so cute:
I'm actually kind of proud of myself for coming this far, learning to knit a shawl and learning to do some tiny cables; and of course the beads - they took me an hour to put on but in the end all the work was worth it - I've worn it twice already and it's only been finished 5 days!!!! Make sure you stop by Tami's blog to share your finished objects and to see what everyone else has been finishing this week.
I'll be back on Monday for the start of knitting and crochet blog week.

  9. Your shawl is fab and good for you having the patience to put all the beads on. I probably would've left them off because I'm lazy like that...lol
