Feather and fan shawl from GOL

Well I have finished this never ending shawl. By the end there were about 2000 stitches per round. Took me about an hour per round. I thought this would be a bigger shawl but it turned out quite small. Too small for me so I am giving it away to a very deserving friend.
The blocking was a pain due to the edging. Each little loop needed to be pinned out.
You can see the colour change when I changed skeins {the joy of hand painted}. I alternated the skeins for a while to ease the transition. I think it looks pretty cool this way. Let's say I did it on purpose.
Enjoy the photos.
