Wisteria Shawl

I had fun knitting this shawl using one ball of
Socky-Talky by the Dye Guy.

The pattern is in the book 
Sock Yarn - One Skein Wonders
along with 100 other patterns.
The book is divided in sections for hat, mitts, gloves, scarves, shrugs, wraps, babies, kids, toys, doll clothes, bags and lots more, included a nice selection of sock patterns.

This wrap was very easy to make. It is a 13 stitch by 12 row repeat. The yarn is a hand dyed merino blend.
It is a wonderful yarn to use and it is "local" which is a bonus.
As you can see - blocking makes a big difference in the final appearance.It grew in depth and width to a really nice size.
I can't wait to wear it!
