I made this shawl by first knitting a large rectangle with some lace weight silk & mohair yarn and a huge set of needles. Once that was done, I felted it using merino wool and alpaca locks. I really love the way it came out although the length shrunk much more than I had planned on. I'm experimenting with more items like this where I knit a piece first and then felt. It's really labor intensive, but fun!
