St. Augustine the soft and snuggly






Behold the Augustine Shawlette, in all it's glory.  Knit in silky Malabrigo (colorway Archangel).  I got eleven repeats out of two balls of yarn.  This is what heaven must feel like, people.  I really enjoyed knitting this - the pattern was easy to memorize and as long as I kept an eye on which repeat I was doing, there were no problems.  I will get serious wear out of this beaut - more as a scarf than a shawl, probably, but whatever - it's divine.  I've been splitting my time mainly between knitting this and reading The Sherlockian.  I suppose now there is nothing to stand in the way of reading The Sherlockian whilst wearing the scarf!  Sweet!
