It Hap-pened
How may titles can you get out of word plays with hap I wonder!
It's finished and I'm itching to start another even though I have lots of other things that I should be working on. It came out to be a perfect size. I will measure and give specs when it is finished blocking.
I decided against an edging but did a picot bind off instead. I think I will do that on my second one too. I have to say laziness aside( laziness is a big factor) I think that I really like the simplicity of the picot as opposed to an edging. The hap is a very uncomplicated pattern iand it lends itself to simple treatment.
This is kind of like pictures without make-up but I couldn't wait to post pics. Here are pics of my unblocked hap. See this tiny bit left. I was not sure we'd make it!!!

It looks great!! I've said this a million times, but I love the colors.
it is stunningly beautiful!
Wow! I'm looking forward to seeing her all gussied up and blocked. Did you find this to be a relaxing and easy knit? Or no? How many balls of ksh did it use?
It turned out beautifully! Can't wait to see the finished item on Saturday!
gorgeous!!!
That is so beautiful. I want to know how you went about choosing the colors!
Congratulations on finishing such a beautiful shawl. I love the colors and how warm and soft it looks.
Well! I'd say you did it! But don't forget what else you have to finish before your trip! Just a friendly reminder! (hahahahahah) Love ya, Lizzo
by the way, it looks wonderful, bring it Saturday so we can all feel and drool.......
oh so lovely! The colors are beautiful and mmmm KSH!
It looks so lovely. I have never seen a Hap knitted up before. The colours are gorgeous..... and you just had enough yarn for it. I bet you were a bit nervous towards the end, thinking would you make it to the end!!
Photos without makeup, that's so funny! The shawl is beautiful! Nice knitting!
Wow Elizabeth is that yummy!! Makes me want to put it on. Perfect for those cold days!!
It's very beautiful! It looks soft and warm too :o)
It's perfectly lovely! And I would never have thought to use KSH for this. The colors are inspired. :)
I love this shawl- it reminds me of a more sophisticated version of that baby blanket I am generally always working on. :) (much, much, much more sophisticated!)
It's really beautiful! I am currently doing the same pattern, but am slogging through the garter sts middle... :)
