Last night, I finished binding off Reciprocate. There were over 750 stitches to bind off and it recommended a stretchy bind off which is kinda like doing each stitch twice. I got to the halfway point and thought . . I can’t finish this tonight . . but I really wanted to get it soaked, blocked and dry so I could take it to my knitting group today and weave in the ends and show it off.
Reciprocate
It was a very fun and interesting knit. You know it was or I would have become bored with that many stitches and it would still be sitting in a project bag.
The yarn is all Miss Babs Hotshot (which I love!)
I could have blocked it a little more aggressively but I didn’t want to mess with the blocking wires. I was blocking it on an extra bed and was so afraid of hitting something with my sore toe. It’s blocked enough for me and I’m very happy to have it finished and very happy with how it turned out.
I’ll get better pictures this afternoon or tomorrow and post those.

What a fabulous finish! It looks like a complicated pattern, and 750 stitches is a LOT.

That is one “stunning hotshot” shawl! I love it! Fabulous! One of my favorites!
