Hello,
I’m a French blogger and I’ve just made your perseverance Shawl. A friend gave me the pattern and I’ve just discovered who was hidding behind it! Thanks so much!
I’m not a great knitter but I had fun making this one and starting a new one!
Would you allow me to translate your pattern in French??? I will link to you of course.
Thanks again for sharing!

What a great concept for the shawl! Switchbacks will probably be the death of me one day, but they’re always worth it in the end. A good metaphor for some of my knitting projects right now, too…

Girl, in my mind, you can talk about Alaska as much as you want – I want to know every detail! This is a beautiful pattern inspired by what seems to be a beautiful place. You look amazing in the photos. I’m glad that you’ve perservered through yoru blogging, through the hike and through the pattern writing! xoxo

I love the pattern! It’s simple and really shows off the yarn wonderfully. Also, love your hair with the braid in it. You look fab, as always!

That was such a fun hike! I’m so glad you guys got me out so much while you were here. It really motivated me to take my hiking/running to the next level. I don’t think I realized that I had enough energy to hike after work everyday until I tried it with you (normally I just walk after work, not hike).

Your shawl came out really nice!!! I love how the linen stitch is next to the garter bands. The contrast really brings out the different stitch patterns.
