I finished the Hitchhiker shawl by Martina Behm. I used Blarney Yarns (an local indie dyer) in a beautiful green.
The pattern calls for 42 teeth. I wasn't counting and ended up with 44. It still needs to be blocked (mainly to get rid of the awful smell caused by the dye-not sure what it is but; yuck).
I love it. I'd highly recommend this pattern. Easy to memorize and easy to make. Tons of garter stitch.
