That would probably look lovely.<br /><br />Anyway, sounds like either your gauge was off, or you did a repeat a few too many times.<br /><br />All is well, and if you like the shawl, keep it as is!Virginia Ghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18211432405256644102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6185817524347016999.post-12156806396913461682011-07-22T08:18:02.429-04:002011-07-22T08:18:02.429-04:00I think you're right. If I really cared about ...I think you're right. If I really cared about it looking perfect and like the real thing I would've ripped out the beginning when I realized I had jacked it up and started over. But I'm lazy and really not much of a perfectionist and don't like ripping out a few hours worth of knitting for someone nobody but me will notice. I'm definitely leaning towards just throwing on a few rows of garter and calling it good.Knitterwockeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03254316342834462284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6185817524347016999.post-9909522295012178412011-07-22T07:41:29.393-04:002011-07-22T07:41:29.393-04:00It doesn't have to look like the 'real thi...It doesn't have to look like the 'real thing.' Its YOUR hanami. And you have total creative license!!! Being a cheapskate, I would just cast off at a suitable point in the pattern. Or just change to a different colour for the hell of it... But, that may not be the look you're going for. So, my general advice would be to evaluate if its possible to say, do the wavy border in a black or other nice colour, or just do the garter & cast off :)<br /><br />Hope it helps!Mara Mayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08449308525026484565noreply@blogger.com
