Yesterday I posted in my blog about trying to start, finish and mail something to my MIL for Mother's Day.

I was joking... kinda!

But - surprise surprise... I actually did it!!!!! :eek :eek:eek

Here's a pic of my MIL's shawl.

I took the pic at 1 am, and before I weaved my ends.

After weaving the ends & kissing it, I stuck it in a box, and ran down to the PO!

Yay!!! She lives in TX, so I'm hoping it'll be there Saturday! :manyheart

More details, and the pattern link are in my blog.

It is hard to tell, huh?!!!

It's RH Claret, so the pic of it on the beige background is more true than the other.

My dining room table is a cherry color, so I guess it ate the real color :lol
