The specs:
Pattern: Icarus Shawl from Summer 2006 Interweave Knits by the wonderfully talented Miriam Felton
Needles: Size 3
Yarn: Alpaca Silk from Webs; it's a cabled yarn and I had to uncable it to get the yarn I wanted, but man worth the work.
Modifications: I added a beaded row per Mim's instructions. My beads were 6 mm white glass pearls.

It was worth every bit of the effort to uncable the yarn and do the knitting. I fell in love with this shawl the second I saw it in IK, simple and elegant, but didn't have a yarn for it. Then I got my Webs order and knew the pink was for my Icarus. I absolutely love the beaded row and I'm so glad that I did delay working on the shawl long enough to find out about it because it absolutely does make the shawl. The pictures, as usual, just don't do the shawl justice. I love it, in case you can't tell.
