Another shawl finish

As spring is far way, so it seems, I have been kitting like crazy to finish a shawl for my sister. I promised her to knit the New Beginning Shawl. Started March 8th and finished it today. For a change I thought I'd try to do an I cord bind off and I really like the way it turns out.
 Besides knitting I also have been stitching. The Plantation Sampler is now having a garden with some sheep, birds, a stork. I started to fill in the area with green, because when doing that at the end it is an awful job. Now I can add some green in between other little stitches. 
The fun of stitching a sampler is those little projects that are finished in a couple of hours. I love the feeling of having a finish!

Prachtige shawl! En dat borduurwerk is ook al zo mooi, ik verheug me vast op de volgende update.

Mooie manier van afkanten is dat, daar ga ik me ook eens in verdiepen!
Je borduurwerk is allerliefst.

Joke,
Your shawls are all so beautiful. I really need to get back to one I started over a year ago. It needs more attention than I've been able to devote to it, but I must change that! I'm also loving watching your garden grow.
