Manon Shawl Finished

Sister Carrie's shawl is done and ready to mail to North Carolina.

The yarn, Elann's Coto Canapone, Worsted weight, 52% cotton, 48% hemp, is now my favorite summer yarn.

It knits up like a dream, without splitting, and gets softer with each washing while still maintaining good stitch definition. Highly recommended.


The yarn is "Machine wash cold, dry flat". I machine washed it in warm water and threw it in the dryer, knowing that was OK because I first tried it on a generous swatch.
