A shawl for Japan.....

So many artists are coming together right now to help with the devastation in Japan.  Its really cool to see.  When I saw this pattern from Wendy, I knew I just had to have it...as I've been wanting to make a lace shawl for a while now.  She's donating the proceeds to Japan.  It's a GREAT cause and I get a GREAT pattern!!! Now to find the perfect yarn......stay tuned!!

Oh...and if you are interested...you can purchase the pattern on Ravelry or here

Also, I forgot to mention that my previous socks (the metro ones) were the winners on Ravelry for the month of March.  For that, I got to pick a pattern from Wendy's selection at The Loopy Ewe.  I picked the Two-Fer-Socks...can't wait to get these babies on the needles!! :)
