These pictures do not capture what this wrap looks like "in real life". The beads are a little easier to see in the blocked picture. I love how the beads and the drape of the yarn look. What a great wrap! The design and pattern were both incredibly well done. I am so happy to be wearing this right now.
Pattern details:
Pattern: Aeolian Shawl by Elizabeth Freeman from Knitty Spring 2009 with the Alternate Narrow Edge, available here on Ravelry
Size: Shawlette; 4 repeats of the Yucca chart, NO regular Agave chart, just Final Agave chart, alternate narrow edging
Yarn: 1 skein HandMaiden Sea Silk, colorway: Moss, with only 4 gr (or 4%) left over!
Beads: 8/0 Butter Cream Ceylon Miyuki Seed Bead from Caravan Beads; used approx 15gr

Details: I shared my notes along the way (click here for a review).
So now that I have finished this big project, I have some time to finish up a couple of other WIPs that have been hibernating. I will dig them out over the weekend and get started.
