I couldn't share it with you all yet because it was a gift for Kate and I know she reads the blog!
The yarn used is KnitPicks Shadow in the colourway Sunset. The yarn was really nice to use. The knitting itself was quite long as you start from the bottom edge so have to cast on a mere 375 stitches!
The centre panel is a little bit boring to knit but you have the pleasure of having shorter and shorter rows all the time. The result is quite effective though so I'm happy I did it.
The size after blocking was 31.5" x 57.5". It probably could have been blocked a little larger but my blocking board wasn't big enough.
I'm happy to say that she received the shawl today and is already fully enjoying it!

Your photos are far better than mine. I do love it. :-D
I just spotted this lovely item on Kate's blog and must congratulate you, it is gorgeous (and maybe your photos are a little bit better than Kate's but she's new to her camera).
