9 of 12: Adelei

This could very well be my new favorite.  Shawl number 9 was the Adelei Shawl by Wendy Neal.  I was drawn to this one by the irregular shape and the interesting center lines.

The pattern is basically six triangles - two large, two medium and two small.  The yarn is a recycled blue silk.  The pattern called for beading, but I didn't have a bead that worked well with the blue so I opted to keep it simple.

The color is a beautiful - almost an indigo.  Looks great with jeans.  I've gotten a ton of compliments on this one and I've only worn it out a few times.
