With two skeind of YarnArt Magic (and 5.5 needles) I made easy shawl, but it's for a guy so it is going to be used as a scarf. It took me five Harry Potter movies (we had HP night the other day), few hours of blocking.

Shawl is really soft and warm.

Lace Baby Alpaca

Hurray! I managed to blockthe shawl for my mom, so I have two Christmas presents ready :)
First, it's knitted from 1 skein of Baby Alpaca - the softest wool I ever seen and touched (also the most expensive, but worth every PLN). I used 2.5 needles and it was perfect. The pattern is Triangular leaf shawl from Ravelry.
The shawl is so bi it didn't fit the size of the picture ;)
