Dove sall / Dove shawl

Nüüd on siis selline lugu, et olen tegutsenud ookeani taguste juhiste järele. Ehk siis nõustusin ühe alpaka kasvataja tarvis proovikudumist tegema.
Lõng saadeti üle suure lombi koju kätte, muster meilitsi ette ja nii ta siis pidi tulema.

Lõng on kahekordne peenike 100% alpaka vill. Ette anti Ravelryski liikuv Dove shawli muster.
Lihtne kudumine - ei miskeid eraldi servi ega muud toredust. 3mm vardaga punutud.
Kudum kooldub kenasti 3-mõõtmeliseks.
Õpetuses soovitatakse õrnalt triikida (seal on kasutatud Rowani Kidsilk Haze), mina ei triikinud vaid ikka panin nõelte alla, aga kuivalt ja mitte täie vungiga, misjärel veidi niisutasin. Niiet maha võttes jäi ikkagi sallile mustri koolduvus sisse.
Ise ma selle lõnga jaoks seda mustrit ei valiks, eriti just kolmnurkset tükki. See lõng sobiks hoopis imehästi Haapsalu sallide kudumiseks.

So it has happend, that now I have been knitting as asked from other side of the big ocean:)
Means, I agreed to make a trial project for a lovely lady Randie, who is raising alpacas. She shipped yarn over, also choose the pattern, which was Dove shawl.

Yarn is 2ply fine lace, 100% alpaca. I used 3mm needles for knitting.
Quite simple piece - no border knitting separately and other tricks. And it turnes out nicely 3-dimensional.
In the tutorial its suggested to iron smoothly (original is knitted of Rowan Kidsilk Haze), but I still blocked the piece. Dry, not with full scope, moisted afterwards. So, then I took it down from frame, it was still bowed.
If I would choose the pattern for this laceweight yarn, then it would be very likely something of traditional Estonian lace.
