Leafy Green Shawl

At the yarn store in Utrecht (I really need to finish writing+captioning up this trip), I bought some single-ply laceweight green yarn, because while I've made a number of lace shawls, none of them have been green.    When I came home, I noted that I have done this twice previously, about every two years.    

So as to avoid buying more green laceweight in 2019, I made a green lace shawl.   I'm pleased with how it came out, though I wouldn't mind having a better background for the picture.

Dang, that's really pretty. Was it hard to make?

Pretty! I like the pattern echoes of the curved point filling an inside angle. And the leaves -- the ones in the center diamond would make nice peacock feathers, too, in different colors. <ponders again the mad project of making a white shawl and then hand-painting it>
