Sequined shawl

Thanks to public transportation being on strike and finding noone to give me a ride to work, I had to do Monday's and Tuesday's work on Saturday and am now at home on a Monday morning. But that way I can already share what I finished late last night while marathon watching X-Files (Microfilms! Audiocassettes! Telephone receivers with cords! Ok, I still had one like that until last year.) ;-) :





The sequins are already integrated into the yarn (Schulana Kid-Paillettes). It's the most expensive one I ever bought, but I really love how it looks and it feels very nice.

The pattern is The Age of Brass and Steam Kerchief, slightly altered: I put only 8 rows between the lace parts and obviously repeated that more often. I also changed the edging, just repeating the lace part three times and then casting off. (Didn’t have enough yarn to do another complete repeat and didn’t want to waste any yarn. ;-))
