Beatrice Shawl

 
Sometime I have a result in dyeing that I am not quite that happy with.
Take this yarn; It is a beautiful soft 125g of merino, gorgeously spun originally white.
 
Than I dyed it randomly with yellow red and blue dye powder and although I wasn't totally disappointed it turned out very different from what I had hoped for.
 
What to use it for??????????
 
So it lay in waiting for more then a year, perhaps even two until this pattern caught my eye....
 
 
 
So I knitted it.


 
And blocked it.





 
 
And now I like it a lot.
The pattern was very suitable for this yarn and turned it into a very happy shawl that is light and very soft.
