Knitted Shawl For Lammily

The weathermen's forecast for the first 2 weeks of December is well, more rain. Thundery showers with daily temperature between 24 deg C and 32 deg C. And get this, temperature could reach a low of 22 deg C.

Did you hear that? 22 deg C. OMG, we're gonna freeze to death. I've prepared for the cold spell - digging out a few long pants and one thin cardigan. What else? Oh yes, we won't use the air-conditioner either.

I couldn't neglect my dolls. Most of my dolls are in boxes so they're fine. But Lammily, my most played with doll is always on my computer table. I decided to knit a shawl for her.

I used a Daison $2 lace yarn knitted on a circular needle that is so fine I can't even read the size. Knitting with such thin needles cramps my hands. Halfway through, I really regretted starting the project. I almost abandoned the shawl.

 It is a simple pattern. Just knit, knit, knit. Sometimes, yarn over. Sometimes k2tog.

The right side looks larger than the left side. I started with the right side. Please don't ask me to rip out and redo the left side.

I had some struggles with the first stitch (slip purl wise) when a k2tog comes after it. Maybe I should give the stitches a tug after knitting?

I found Lammily's knitted hat from September. Do you think Lammily is ready for December's 22 deg C?

2nd UFO completed. Hmm.... I don't know why but I don't really get any satisfaction completing this project?
