Shawl knitalong

This is the 4th post of my shawl knitalong, you can find the other 3 herehere, and here.
The pictures are getting harder to make understanable, so you will have to rely more on the pattern.
This week we will continue on the main shawl, and make 2 rosettes.

Starting with the 41 sts from last week.

It should look like this right after cast off.

Leave 3 inch strand of yarn after casting off, use to tie/weave in a spiral until it resembles a rosette.

That is all for this week, I am looking forward to next Friday. Thank you for reading!
