Do not iron.

2 ply shawls - I am full of admiration!
Perhaps I am too impatient to do that.

They are remarkably simple but, like Aran jumpers, look impressive.
Fine yarn but big pins! The circular one I make most often is predominantly a very simple, repeating feather and fan pattern over 4 rows - 3 of which are plain knitting.
I've used the same pattern in 3ply.
Have a go!

Now, if I thought there would be another DGC I might just do that.
But I think it's very unlikely.

I do have a couple of shawl patterns, very old ones courtesy of MIL.

I'm full of admiration mcem for your shawl skills. As my project is finished, could you share a pattern? Not too intricate though!

I use to design and sell knitwear in craft fairs, I always did as Jalima recommends , block then cover with damp towels .

design and sell, I am impressed again.

Back to my k1 p1, keeps my fingers busy anyway!

Found the shawl pattern online if you want to have a look.
Ebay- Paton's 8008 vintage baby shawl knitting pattern.
There's a square one too but I've always done the circular and used a more complicated square for christening shawls.
Tried to post pic but tablet is not cooperating.

Trying camera. Poor picture- sorry!

jalima you don't even need to purl! It's all knit and wool fwd2tog.

Oh, that sounds quite easy. Well, I just need a baby!

That looks lovely mcem (can I borrow that baby, she looks very nice, I promise to return after a cuddle and when she needs her nappy changed).

That baby celebrates her 40th this year and isn't so chubby now!

Oh! I thought it was a new addition to the family.

I found the old pattern this evening (not as nice as that one) but whether or not I'll ever tackle one is another thought.

Hi everyone! I am running a survey to collect information on fabric buying patterns for my final year university project. If you have a spare 2 minutes, please could you fill in our questionnaire! Many thanks nbsnu.co1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_eUM42gi54rvKzuR

I'm not sure if this is the right forum for that miamellor2 - you may not get as many responses as you'd like.

Can you contact Gransnet HQ and they will advise you what to do?

miamellor I filled it out!

Acrylic fabric and irons can really need up your knitting. Do not steam them whatever you do.
