I've been living with the Princess in your posts for so long now, that it's weird to think that there's only the penultimate post to go - the repair & blocking post. Is the connecticut bride interested in the shawl as a veil perhaps? Mind you, July in CT is probably a bit warm for a wool shawl!Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12124722668160658606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-9918416404846714662009-07-10T16:25:33.524+01:002009-07-10T16:25:33.524+01:00I have been following your progress on the Princes...I have been following your progress on the Princess and I'm pleased to see you're so close to the end!
