Next time knit the nupps

I think I might be addicted to knitting lace shawls. This Swallowtail lace shawl is my third shawl or shawlette since January and I can't wait to try another one.   Each one teaches me something new, well new to me anyway!.. With this shawl I learned about safety lines.  This shawl was knit over three times before I remembered about the safety line.  I used two safety lines with this knit, always taking out the bottom and putting it back into the top or the current working pattern.  This way when a mistake is made and not noticed I will alway have a safety line to go back to.  And the blocking! what a wonderful idea, who knew!! 

 I left out the nupps because my knitting is way too tight and doing a K1, YO, K1, YO  all in one stitch isn't too bad, it's the purling 4 stitches together in the next row that get me every time.  So I used beads instead of the nupps.  Using the super dental floss methed to insert instead of the nupps.  But next time I would try a bit harder to knit the nupps especially after watching this : video
