Third time lucky!

This is (clearly!) the beginning of a shawl. What is less obvious is that it has taken two full evenings and an afternoon of knitting to get this far. I’m not that slow! This is the third incarnation of this shawl, however. In my head I had an idea for a shallow crescent shawl, but when I started it, I didn’t like it. That transformed into a modified triangular shawl, but then that didn’t turn out how I had envisioned it either.
Turns out this shawl wants to be a semi-circular one! Who knew?! I think this is the right choice though. The yarn cake is forming a heart in the centre as I knit it!
