    It’s nice to learn some people on the planet have the patience for such things. Unfortunately, I’ve never been one of them (smile).

  3. Beautiful shawl. That puzzle is interestingly thick as well as cunningly cut.

    Love the shawl! Cardboard rather than knitting puzzles, though, better you than me. Glad you enjoy them! (My DH and MIL do too but have learned not to *donvier them at me.)

    *donvier: a gift you give someone because it’s what you want, not what they like.
