I present to you a finished Icarus! Valerie lent me blocking wires, and I must say I love them. Icarus measures 67" across and 37" down the center.
Preblocking:
After blocking and close ups:
Now, what lacey goodness shall I do next?

Me loves Icarus.
And it's wheel spinning, but I do spindle occasionally.
Love it. Love it.
Next lace....hmmm....How about the Shetland Triangle from Wrap Style? (I'm just saying this cause I want to see another one knit!)
Artsygal yarn is pretty!
Absolutely beautiful!!! I love the color!
Lovely! It's amazing what blocking will do to lace. The colors really pop. You have created a breath-takingly beautiful shawl.
Wow! All I can say is WOW!
Unbelievable! I love the magic of blocking lace! VERY IMPRESSIVE KNITTING!!
I am SOOO in love with that shawl!!! What yarn is that?? It also looks fairly easy! I wonder if the lace pattern is easier than the swallowtail?
It's just gorgeous. I sit here in admiration. I know that sounds like sass, but I mean it. It's so so pretty!
Thanks for the inspiration offered by knitting it up in a handpainted yarn
