Gloomy Day for a Blocking

It's an awful day for taking pictures of a finished project with dingy winter light just oozing in around the shutters.  However, I've finished a pretty little shawl intended for my new sister in law and I thought I'd take a few shots of it as it's pinned out for blocking on the bed.  This is the Haruni shawl knit in Berocco Comfort Sock:


I normally choose a brighter yarn for my projects but I have to say that this grey results in an elegant shawl that emphasizes the texture of the lace very nicely.  Once it's dry I'll try to take some less dismal pictures of it and then it'll be off in the mail!
