Pattern: Pi Shawl (July) by Elizabeth Zimmerman in the Knitter's Almanac Yarn: Fearless Fibers superwash merino in Deepest Forest and Baby Silk (color 2308) from Elann
Needles: US #4 circular and DPN
I made a small shawlette size that is just right to pin around me but keep my arms free. The construction of the shawl is based on the mathematical constant pi, so here are the notes in numerical terms:
440 yards of sock yarn
273 yards of alpaca/silk for border
50,040 stitches
213 quilting pins to block the shape
40 inch diameter
1 very happy knitter
