I decided that I wanted more of a scarf then a shawl so made it smaller than what the pattern called for and I did 5 instead of 3 fan rows.
If you are interested in making the Maia Shawl you can find the pattern here.

current project - maia shawl by lisa naskrent.
I just completed the Maia Shawl by Lisa Naskrent. I made this shawl once before and it is by far my favorite shawl pattern. The yarn that I chose is Lace Silk by Handmaiden Fine Yarn (100% Hand Dyed Silk). It's the kind of yarn that once you pick it up you know that you will never be able to put it down.

this is insanely stunning! i bought this pattern because i saw your picture on ravelry! just wish the yarn wasnt so expensive! but im part way through making one in wool, but im looking into some silk/silk mix to make it again :)
ReplyDeletethanks for the stunning pictures!
Thank-you so much for your comment!!! The first Miai Shawl I made using a wool/silk blend and for this one I splurged and treated myself :) I actually prefer working with a wool blend but the silk is so pretty and I'm seriously in love with Lisa Naskrent shawl patterns!!!
