Perfect Pie Shawl and one of Three Tams from Knitty

Shawl is from Weekend Knitting book made from Lion Brand Romance 85% acrylic and 15% mohair, made in Italy, in color no 143 lavender...whaddya want for $5? Oh it's trimmed with Lanett superwash lilac...I think...I have so many different kinds of purple-colored scrap yarn I can't remember. Tam is tam B from Three Tams off of Knitty.com. Background is Lion Brand Wool-Ease in color camel. Pink and purple is from Patons SWS 70% wool and 30% soy. I really like this stuff! It's very colorful and soft. I blocked the tam on a plate and am very pleased! It made it even softer and has lovely drape. I used less than a ball for the tam and am now working on a matching scarf.
