Holiday shawl knitting

As you might have noticed, I don't knit many shawls. 

And I don't knit socks. But still I tend to buy sock yarn....

So, this Christmas holiday, since we've been travelling, 

I brought sock yarn, long circulars and three shawl patterns. 

First out was Pebble Beach Shawlette by Curioushandmade. 

I have been listening to her podcast for a while, 

almost since the beginning last year, I believe,

 but hadn't knit any of her patterns yet. 

It was about time. (Do check out her podcast, if you haven't already!)

The pattern was easy to follow, easy to memorize 

(I don't like complicatede lace) 

and I loved the percentage system, 

that told med how far I had come at every point 

(every 5%, to be exact).

Still, my visual brain would have liked a little chart too. 

When on holiday, you can block your shawl between two closet doors.

And you can knit everywhere!

And I did finish in time for Christmas.
