Introducing the hand painted turkey truss. Yup, in the absence of dental floss, Koigu was used to truss our Easter turkey. This is no April Fool’s joke, here’s the photo to prove it.
On to the more traditional use of Koigu, a blocking Charlotte. I had to call it quits after the additional 32 rows. I was running out of yarn. The disappointing aspect is that I didn’t bother measuring my gauge since it was a shawl afterall. So, after all the extra work it still measured out to traditional Charlotte size according to the pattern. I really wanted it larger, but I wasn’t prepared to knit one more row. I still love the outcome. I am planning on adding the ruffle after blocking so that will add another almost inch to the length:
