Remember the shawls I showed you the other week? I've finally finished beading them both. What a slow job it was, adding each little bead and its stopper bead to each point on the border. Anyway they are done now so I thought you would like to see them
I haven't blocked them as they are very big especially the green goddess one. Who ever gets them can always block if they want them even longer.
pictured outdoors because it is actually sunny today:)
Close up of the edge, you can just see the beads
Then the giant green shawl.
What you don't see is how much is over my hands, another foot or two I'd guess.
The border is done in different greens I wanted to progress from thicker to thin mohair to reflect the way the trees go from bare to full of leaf. There are many different shades of green in the beads also.
Hope you like

Gorgeous shawls, I particularly love the green one :-)
They are lovely. I too love the green one.
They're lovely to look at and they're certainly going to do the job very nicely!
Your shawls look so comforting - cosy, what a pleasure they must be to wear. The purple & hot pink one would be fab on your misty foggy day and would cheer up anyone who passes you - they would just have to smile, all that enthusiastic color.
