My Fashionable Life

What a lovely thought. I'm sure she'll cherish it long after the memories (and pain) fade. The two shades of yarn are quite effective together, I think it's beautiful!

Beautiful - Love the two colours together. I've really wanted to see something worked up in seasilk and that looks just lovely. I

anna that is just gorgeous. the two colours just add it its beauty in my opinion.

The colors meld together beautifully. Sarcelle would certainly make me feel better.

It's amazing!

It is perfectly lovely. I'm sure that it will be treasured and will take its place at many happy occasions in the future.

your friend is sure to treasure it.

that is just beautiful! your friend is lucky to have you.

"Demanding" indeed! Gorgeous!

Gorgeous! I love the way you blended the blue and the green, it is fabulous!

Anna, it is absolutely exquisite and the colours are perfect tog. You're a true artist.

PS: I've just completed Elfine's socks - cuff down - and some of my commenters want the 'pattern'. What shall we do? If you have a moment, please take a look and let me know (as if you don't have enough to do)... x

my goodness, that is breath-taking.

That is GORGEOUS! You picked my two favorite colors. The only thing better than those colors separate is the two together. Beautiful work! I'm sure she will love it.

How lovely! and such a thoughtful gift to help heal a broken heart.

Wow, that is absolutely gorgeous! I love the two colors. Very pretty!

That is absolutely stunning.

lovely! and so very thoughtful too!

What a kind, generous and lovely gift. I hope that the gesture helps her to move on from this.

It looks beautiful, and I'm sure it will make her feel loved--which is never a bad thing!

The shawl is beautiful! Here's hoping it brings some joy to your friend :).

It's lovely and unique! And so kind of you to make as a comfort!

How sad. Beautiful shawl though. I just finished a scarf in sea silk and love it. Your colours are lovely.

What a beautiful expression of love! I like the colors changing. Kind of like the end of one era dn the beginning of another. . . . .beautiful.

Exquisite! I love the two colors together.

i like the 2 colors together. it's beautiful!

It's truly beautiful, and I'm sure your friend will enjoy it!

It is hard to watch loved ones suffering. I hope the knitting made you feel better — a tiny bit less like there was nothing you could do. I'm sure it will be treasured by Em as a symbol of your support, as well as for its own lovely sake.

Gorgeous! I love the close up. I'm going to hop right on over there now, because I am in total lace knitting mode!!

Beautiful! I love the color transition. How was working with the sea silk?

The two colours work very well together and the end result is stunning. A very thoughtful gift for your friend.

Stunning, as always.

beautiful! and in seasilk, how fantastic.

What a gorgeous shawl. I'm sure your friend will treaure it now and in the future. The colours work so well together.

One word sums up this shawl - beautiful. With all the work that went into that shawl Em will know that someone genuinely cares about her.

That is a singularly beautiful stole. A thing of loveliness which will hopefully ease the pain a little.

Being wrapped in such beauty and love will,hopefully,ease poor Em's pain. A gorgeous stole and a demonstration of true love,support and friendship.

Oh it is so beautiful and I think a perfect gift. There is something so soothing and comforting about being wrapped in knitted lace and the colour you have chosen seems very tranquil. I am sure it will be loved and cherished, such a lovely comforting gift.

The shawl is gorgeous ... I really like the way the two colors balance each other. Your friend is sure to love it.

That's one amazing shawl. I'm sure it'll bring your message to her.

That is absolutely fab. Such a generous gesture for your friend. Oh well, it may seem hard for her now, but that might have been fate saving her from a worse heartbreak down the line. Fatalistic, true, but still.

So. What is working with this sea silk like? I'd love to splash out on it, but I need to be careful with my purchases.

Thanks.

Beautiful - she is lucky to have you and family thinking of her and looking after her.

just wanted to send hugs, there seem to be a few sad moments for you and yours of late so heres to some happy ones for you all (((()))))

the shawl is very pretty in thought and in yarn ;)

What a lovely gesture of comfort! The seasilk looks just great in that pattern - I've been hoarding a skeing of the blue-green for a while now.

That is beautiful. I have two skeins of the handmaiden seasilk in berry I've been trying to find the perfect stole pattern for and that might be it!

lovely stole... simply wonderful. and the colors look so beautiful together - I thought the progression from blue to green was intentional until I read your full post.

That's very beautiful, but also makes me feel very sad for the bride, I hope she's ok.

Beautiful colors and I love the striping, one into the other. Gorgeous wrap.

very lovely.

speaking as someone who recently suffered heartbreak by the loss of a meaningful relationship, and as someone whose own wedding plans were on the verge of imminent doom, i am so very sorry for em. i hope she can take some solace in knowing that everything really does happen for a reason, even if we don't understand it right away.

and of course, the stole is gorgeous :)

Beautiful indeed. My thoughts are with Em, wherever she may be found

Wow, that came out beautifully!

ooooh, this is just gorgeous! you are such a kind and caring friend. i'm sure she'll love it forever.

Oh my gosh that is fantastic!!! I'm sure it will mean the world to her!

Absolutely beautiful...

Gorgeous. Your friend will love it, I'm sure.

lovely, beautiful shawl. The colors are beautiful and the blending is sublime!

The stole is beautiful! I love the color changes from one end to the other. What a sweet and thoughtful gift on your part.

It's really really pretty - you've done a gorgeous job of it. I suddenly find myself really tempted to go and get a second skein of the green handmaiden seasilk... You are a bad influence.

What a thoughtful gift and kind gift-giver...
