I did have to add in some black to finish the edges.
I ran out of the pink even with some alterations to the pattern to try to finish it off without changing colour so went and raided the project cupboard and found a mohair style fluffy thin wool and a thicker plain twist, then ran both together to get the extra thickness to match it to the pink felty wool.
I am quite pleased with the contrast actually.
And the big pineapple or shell pattern has come out well even with the thickness of the wool I used.
Have even managed to find my next project but because it is another new crochet stitch I am practising on some scrap wool before starting the new shawl.
