My Lacy Mohair Shawl is done!  I used 2.5 skeins of Twinkles Kid Mohair in #16 Carnation, and a G-6 (4mm) crochet hook.  This shawl is light as a feather, barely weighs an ounce, perfect for a little white sun dress. 

It is long enough to be tied in the front.

Or it can be draped over one shoulder.

I had to hold it up to the light so you could see the airy stitch!

The length is fingertip to fingertip. 
I have noticed a lacy shawl trend, both knit and crochet.  Have you made a lacy shawl?  Do you have a favorite shawl pattern?  I loosely followed a pattern called Seraphina.

How gorgeous!
De-lurking to say that I am becoming obsessed with lace shawls even though I would never wear one. I have some great silk lace but haven't found a pattern that I love -- may just pick a stitch pattern and wing the design!
It's lovely! Pretty color too.
This is a beautiful shawl! I haven't knitted or crocheted any lace yet. I really would like to but I'm a little intimidated. I am looking for a project for my newest spinning project of 170 yards of dk weight. Can a beginner crocheter make this shawl or is it too advanced for me?
