Giving in to Startitis!

I couldn't take another minute of mind numbing Garter Stitch, so I started something new. The Shetland Triangle from Wrap Style. I love this pattern. It's simple enough that I can knit it while watching movies, but the charts and the lace make it more interesting then The Afghan Formally Known As Gabe's.

The pattern calls for a fingering weight yarn, how ever I had 9 balls of Plymouth Indecita Alpaca I bought from Webs while in Massachusetts with Gabe that I'm using instead. I'm hoping with the bigger yarn and the size 7 needles (pattern calls for size 6) that the shawl will be bigger then the pattern calls for.


This is my second attempt at lace knitting, the only other successful lace pattern I have finished being Branching Out. I do enjoy the lace, and I'm hoping after finishing this, I'll be a little more confident for the Forest Path Stole.
