another "Kría"


I finished another Kría-shawl the other day and gave it to a very dear friend.
I used my own, naturally dyed yarn (dyed with Arctostaphylos uva-ursi) and some normal kambgarn from my stash... 

once again, I made an scalloped edging

 the brown colored yarn is my natural dyed yarn... can you see the wonderful irregularities?


this shawl was so perfect for my friend...

  1. The shawl is gorgeous, and I'm sure your friend will treasure it :) I love the colours of the yarn, and Kria is such a pretty shawl pattern, I remember you made it earlier too.
    Have a good time with your friend!

  2. Beautiful work, that shawl is lovely.
    I love things made of yarn. I am just returning to crocheting things. It is still cold here in New England so last week I made a dog sweater for my little dog ... it all got quite funny so I turned it into my blog post for the week. I am enjoying your blog quite a bit so will be back to follow along.

  3. It's a very pretty shawl, and the picot edge makes a lovely finish for it! The colours really work well together! I love the natural dyed colour. Your work is inspiring me to resurrect my crochet skills.

    Sjalið er æði og litirnir þínir alltaf svo fallegir! Fara henni líka einstaklega vel. Og mikið er hún ungleg hún vinkona þín, eitthvað í vatninu í Svíþjóð???!!! :)

    1. velkomin til baka í netheima mín kæra!
      þakka þér kærlega fyrir hrósið... ég held að þetta unglega tengist frekar þessu íslenska þar sem þetta á svo einstaklega vel um okkur líka ;-)
