I just finished weaving in the last few ends on this tonight. The body is finished! Weaving purgatory took a few days - there were SO. MANY. ENDS. I am glad that my past self decided to take care of that in the center panel before I let myself start on the rest of the shawl because I may have perished if I had to do them all at once.
I have to do some thinking now to understand the rest of the journey. I am pretty sure there is an i-cord border that comes next. That seems like it will be a pain, so I can feel myself distancing myself from the effort but I really want this done so I should just jump in and see how it goes. I bet it won't be as bad as I think. After that there's some long finishing rows and a fancy border/bind off at the bottom edge. Those rows will be long, but at that point how does the motivation die when you're so close to the end? We'll see! I don't think it will be done before Halloween, but November feels totally achievable.
