Frost Flowers & Leaves

I started the Frost Flowers & Leaves shawl two weeks ago. This is the first shawl I've ever knit circularly (is that a word?) I'm using Jaggerspun Zephyr in sable - I have a lot left over from my Peacock Feathers shawl. Beginning the shawl on DPNs is so dang fiddly, but once I got past that - I'm really enjoying the knitting. It's almost nicer than having to turn your work over to knit the wrong side.

A whole bunch of false starts. It took me two nights and many more false starts to get going.

Here it the center of the shawl - still on the DPNs (yuck). You can see the pattern forming. So pretty!
