I've been working on a shawl for a couple of months now -- and finally today it's finished!! Here's a picture:

I used two strands throughout -- a boucle that's a tad bit smaller than worsted weight and Plymouth Eros (a ladder yarn).

The shawl pattern is very basic and simple. I posted the pattern in both crochet and knit versions on my blog today.

Hugs! Juli

Very nice, Juli! Another good ladder yarn that is not as expensive as Eros and does come in great colors is Lion Brand Trellis...I have knitted two summer scarves with it and really love it - Very shiny and bright beautiful colors!!

Wow, how totally glam! I was looking at some ladder yarn earlier today and didn't buy it because I just couldn't figure out what to make with it other than a scarf ... what a great idea this was!
