Annis
Without realising it I've managed to jump on the knitting pattern bandwagon rather earlier than usual, and have knitted up this seasons most popular scarf/shawl - Annis
Its a rather clever design, a crescent shaped scarf width shawl, its just what I was looking for :) The lace edging was fairly easy, except for the nupps, which I really didn't like doing and I think in future I would replace them with something else, perhaps a bead as many other have. I've not blocked it yet, as its not something I always do with my knitting, but I think this might have to be an exception.

Stats:
Pattern - Annis, from Knitty Spring/Summer 2010
Yarn - Hestia by Yarn D'Amour, 100% silk, 810 yards (I only used about 40% of it)
Needles - 5mm to cast on, 4mm for the rest :)
Your 'Annis' looks great. Well wear!
