“Masterpiece” Shawls

by Margie Clayman

So I had this idea of starting to customize my shawls, as in, I would base my designs on my own interpretations of actual works of art. Eventually, I could make it even more customizable and have people make requests that I make them shawls based on my interpretations of their own favorite work of art.

To test this idea, I’ve made my first shawl, based on Van Gogh’s Starry Night.

Please give me honest opinions. What do you think of the idea, of this shawl, and anything else that comes to mind. I am looking for input of all kinds!

Thanks!

A birthday present

by Margie Clayman

This came together pretty darned quickly. It’s amazing how a bigger hook and thicker yarn can make projects seem to go faster. Go fig.

The long view:

And a close-up:

This is called “Touch of Grey” (My own design and name) and it’s for someone turning 50. I only realized later that it’s Ohio State Buckeye colors…that was not intentional!
