Myrtle leaf finished

Sweden speaking! Wet, wet and very warm for a winter, 11 C . My shawl is finished, I really like it, the yarn is soft and blocked well. I used 4 mm needles and made 38 repeats instead of 40. The border was easy to knit, and it only took a couple of days. I already started the Spider web shawl, decided to knit a half hexagon. Yarn Evilla lace 8/1 in green/yellowish green. It's easy at least in the beginning. My daughter is modeling.

Thanks all of you! There is an error i row 13 in centerpanel, the first stitch is a K2tog and I want to have that in the end of the row instead. Maybe I'm wrong?

You must be so pleased to have such a beautiful shawl to wear. If I were your daughter I might not give it back!!

I noticed that same mistake in row 13. I checked about 5 times before I believed myself, but yes, I started the row with a single knit stitch and finished with a k2tog at the end of the row.

I checked the publisher's website and they don't have errata online... looks like they should!
