Finished Object!
This is "A curved shawl with diamond edging" from Victorian Lace Today by Jane Sowerby. We knitters (and probably other crafters) usually call our projects languishing around UFOs (for unfinished objects). So I finally have an FO! I finished knitting it a while ago, it's just taken me a while to weave in the ends and then block it. Especially with lace, you must wet the garment then stretch and pin it out to dry, or you will never see the pattern. My challenge is finding space large enough to pin a shawl out--plus it is backbreaking work (bending over that thing...)
Then it was a matter of how to photograph it...
