A shawlette finished/ Fiore di Mare Shawlette by Tiziana Samuri

Over the last month or so I've been knitting a lovely shawlette designed by Tizianz. It's called Fiore di Mare. Those who know me won't be surprised that the inspiration for the flower shape, and the crescent shape of the shawl come from "old" shawls.As with quilts, I'm drawn to the antique ones.
I used Yarn Addict Anni's hand dyed yarn called Fairytale sock yarn. It's a lovely mix of  wool, silk and cashmere. The pattern is available from Tiziana's Ravelry shop.

If you enjoy knitting or crochet, it's definitely worth joining Ravelry. It's free. It's an international data base of thousands of free patterns, pay-for-patterns and more. There are forums for any kind of thing you could possibly be interested in. I've discovered a world of yarns and patterns I didn't know existed and made some great friends. One really cool feature is this..if I have some yarn and don't know what to do with it, I can search a data base for all the projects others have made with that particular yarn. They're shown with links to the patterns. In about 10 minutes I can see what I want to make. Amazing!
