I decided to block it with more pointed than curved edges.
When the shawl is dry and I have my chesterfield back, I''ll model my creation.
Happy knitting!

Blocking My Multnomah Shawl: Finally!
My finished Multnomah Shawl is now pinned to the back of my chesterfield drying.
It was a frustrating project but that was my fault. Even though I checked out the Multnomah Shawl KAL to look for pattern problems and interpretations before I started, I still messed up! The fan and feather lace was knit wrong and ended up like a ruffle. Way too many stitches! I ripped the shawl down to the garter stitch and knit up the fan and feather again. Voila, you see the result above.
When the shawl is dry and I have my chesterfield back, I''ll model my creation.
Happy knitting!

It looks beautiful and without knowing about your frustration, I would never guess that you had issues from the photo. Can't wait to see a pic of you modeling it.
It's beautiful.
I think I kinda liked the ruffled look too!!! Some mistakes are happy ones, no?
It looks really good, I love the yarn you chose! And don't forget to post it on the Adventures in Lace KAL group forum on Ravelry too, I think we need to give that place some new life :)

This is just gorgeous! It seems to me you work very fast!
Your shawl is beautiful! Love the colours. And as other posters have mentioned, I'd never have guessed there were problems. :)
