Your stand-in looks like a little angel. Beautiful!
As is the shawl. I love it. It's a beautiful color as well. And, you gotta love a project that you can finish in a few days. Sounds like a great gift.
Wonderful job, Mary Beth.

Mary Beth, that shawl is beautiful! Kudos to you! My fingers are itching to get started on mine! So glad to know the Frog Tree works so well for this pattern.

It's so pretty! I love the blue alpaca. It is so fun to knit (and you were so much faster than I!) don't you think? I'm going to do another.

It's gorgeous!!! Ever since I saw Margene's and now yours I've been wanting to knit one. I've been looking for something in my stash to knit this with but haven't been able to find anything so I might have to go yarn shopping. Oh no!!

Love the shawl, Mary Beth. And your model is beautiful, too! I started my FBS yesterday and I have completed 5 repeats of the lower pattern already. It's so addicting. I'm hoping to finish tonight. I used America's Alpaca Glimmer Yarn but I'm going to look into the yarn you used. The color is wonderful.

FBS looks great...it too is on the neverending list. I love the color and the model is fantastic.
