Gave the shawl to my 11 yr. old since she has a dress that exactly matches the colors, right down to the stripes, and it's more of a scarf than a shawl. She <3s it almost as much as I do. :)
So, Camp Loopy is this sort of knitting camp for people on Ravelry. We don't actually go anywhere, we just stay home and knit using yarn from The Loopy Ewe, a seriously great yarn store. You order the yarn with a discount, you make a project with a few parameters, you finish the project and upload photos, and then you get a further credit on future yarn. If you finish three Camp Loopy projects this summer, you get a special prize of Wollmeise, which is German yarn that is completely ungettable. You CANNOT buy this yarn unless you are extremely very lucky, and then you pay the equivalent of your children's college funds to get it. (okay, I'm exaggerating). But anyway, I finished the first project, which was really hard for me because I have up to now kind of sucked at lace knitting.
