the Spindrift was my first shawl and I really enjoyed the proces of making it. It was wonderful to see it grow and find its shape. I only knitted one row of lace, because I was afraid of running out of yarn. So it's slightly smaller than intended, but I don't mind.
The yarn is Schoppel crazy zauberball, I bought at Loop London : so many stunning yarns, knitting supplies, haberdashery, patterns, a truly fantastic shop (http://www.loopknittingshop.com/)
