Hope the meds knock it out fast!!! The shawl is lovely. Perfect for a period piece, and then for whenever you desire. The color will allow for all sorts of wearing time.<br />The blooms at your place are all fabulous. Here, not so much. Really odd weather we are having. May Gray, but also, so much cooler than our usual!!<br />Feel better my friend. Miss you.<br />xo KrisKrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15578853096888320012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8865022255438031627.post-76604180832750755632016-05-29T03:05:55.584-07:002016-05-29T03:05:55.584-07:00So sorry to hear you are still coughing.

The yarn is lovely and doesn't require much else but sounds kinda like you've already made up your mind to go with a more lacy look. Even if Simba is an outdoor kitty, at least he knows he has a safe place to rest and there will always be food. That's very important.

I wish I could see the red one to see what it looks like. So sorry you are still not feeling well... usually takes about 3 days for the antibiotics to kick in, and if they don't, you usually will need something stronger. I go through this every few years.. they give you the weakest one and usually it doesn't work and you have to end up taking a second course of a stronger one. I would INSIST on a stronger one if in 5 days you aren't feeling better. That's my experience anyway. Sure hope you feel well enough for all of your festivities coming up! Glad Simba is alive and well too.Marilyn McLeod @ Pink Paper Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13166022624714254716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8865022255438031627.post-70575049372590724332016-05-28T18:27:31.811-07:002016-05-28T18:27:31.811-07:00I love the shawl, as it is, but I also understand ...I love the shawl, as it is, but I also understand having vision.

So sorry you are still poorly. I have an awful cough etc. Very painful now everywhere when I cough, I think I've pulled/strained something coughing :-( feel awful as well. Let's hop we are both fighting fit soon. Hope you can make your 'event' I know it means a lot. DH and I are supposed to be at a special lunch tomorrow for a very dear friend who is celebrating his 80th birthday. It is highly unlikely I will be able to go - unless there is a miracle overnight.

I think your Shawl is gorgeous the way it is. But, if you think it needs more, I agree with what Amanda says about adding the rows of shells and loops and then the picot edging.

Your garden is fabulous, green, green, green, I love it. It must be a very peaceful place to sit. I do hope you're on the mend soon, especially as you have your chorus coming up. Take it easy this weekend. Maybe a little manuka honey would help, it has amazing healing and antibacterial properties.

However I know what you mean because the trim is what shows draped across your arms and the full fall of the back of the shawl with a marked trim is always what shows it all off.
