It's been so long... spring has kept me busy! I try to grow all our veggies myself so this season is the season of sowing, planting, nurturing and eating those lovely first fresh greens out of the ground. I love it!
I also spent the past two weeks travelling to the Netherlands to spend two fantastic weekends with all my family, celebrating the birthdays of both my parents. Of course, I couldn't help myself and had to give mum some crochet love. I crocheted her the Lacy Days of Elegance Shawl in bright colours as well as a flower choker necklace (pattern coming soon! :-)).
But first this pretty little beauty. Nothing ever stops once you've got the crochet virus, and so while I was travelling around,a lovely group of testers helped me to perfect the pattern and showed off their beautiful creations. My... they made some lovely shawls!
I'd say that this shawl deserves a special occasion. Think a wedding a prom, a ball or a chic evening out. It makes for a lovely gift as well and the good news is that it works up very fast, in less than 10 hours.

The Lacy Days of Elegance Shawl is worked as a corner to corner triangle, bottom up with a separate edge added once the body of the shawl has the preferred length. How long you make this shawl is up to you. The pattern will give you suggestions on how to lengthen the shawl and one of my testers has given additional suggestions on her project page on Ravelry. Skill level required is advanced beginner. If you have worked with c2c before, I am confident you can make this pattern without any problems.
There is a Pdf of the full pattern available on Etsy and Ravelry. I hope you will enjoy it! And if you need help while making itl, please ask for it below in the comments, contact me personally or come and find us on Ravelry or Facebook, where we have lovely and growing groups of crochet enthusiasts, helping each other out.
I hope you’ll enjoy both, making and wearing the shawl. As always: Happy crochet!
