Rowan Yorkshire Tweed Shawl

I've just joined up after I realised that half of my stash, and nearly all of my recent yarn purchases are tweed! I am currently knitting the Forest Canopy Shawl (which is my first lace shawl!) in Rowan Yorkshire Tweed 4ply shade Blessed. Here's a quick picture of progress so far:

This is a lovely pattern, and the yarn really suits it (although the pic looks a bit more bluey purple, rather than heather coloured which is actually is). I'm going to make the shawl bigger than the actual pattern as it is a shoulder shawl.

Other impending tweed stuff I hope to knit are the Eowyn wristwarmers in Rowan Yorkshire Tweed and Kid Classic combined(from Rowan 38), Eris in Rowanspun and possibly another shawl.

I was so inspired by the you using tweed yarn that I have ordered some Rowanspun 4ply which was on discount less than £2 per skein ina gorgeous light grey to make a triangle shawl, just haven't decided which yet.
