I just finished a commission for Elizabeth (of the Slouch Beret) for a lace shawl.  She saw me wearing this one this "summer" at the Portland Fiber Gallery.  The fact that it was chilly enough to wear a wool shawl explains the quotation marks.  Elizabeth is an engaging older woman who has simplified her life by wearing only one color....and it is a color that suits her perfectly.  Some might even consider it no color at all.  She favors the soft, off white color of undyed wool.  This shawl is knit from the same material that the Slouch Beret was crocheted from....a merino/alpaca/silk blend that she bought from the Portland Fiber Gallery.
