I'll take any sign of Spring - even if it has to come in the form of yarn! Please hope it doesn't snow today...Happy Easter weekend!

Its beautiful! Love the Sherwood Forest colorway, really lovely.

Araignee said...

It is still cold and rainy way down here in MD too, if that is any consolation. All our blossoms are drenched and very sad looking. It's no way to have an Easter weekend, that's for sure!
The shawl is lovely. Just perfect for a kitty cuddle!
