Fir Cone Shawl

I started this project on our drive to the Grand Canyon in November. It was rather experimental, as I took a stitch from the Stitch-A-Day calendar of Jill's and improvised a shawl design using the stitch. It worked out really well, with the only problem being I had a limited amount of yarn (it is leftover from the chevron clutch that I made) and would have liked to make it a little larger. I think the size is okay though, it does keep a neck warm! The fir cone stitch was really easy to memorize (it is basically the same line repeated through the whole thing, and purling every other row) and I think it looks pretty fancy for how easy it is. This is a gift for a friend who asked for a lace shawl/scarf for Christmas so I hope she likes it!
