Here's a close up of the beading on the edge. I was much more comfortable with charted beads than the garter stitch sections, which said to place beads randomly ... random and I just don't get along. I really prefer symmetry.
I have a new addition to my computer/yarn room. Say hello to Jack Skellington.
He sits at the adjacent wall to Capt. Jack Sparrow. Now all I need is a poster of Capt. Jack Harkness from Torchwood and it'll be a Trifecta of Awesomeness.
And the best part ... he glows in the dark.

... or a trifecta of Jacksomeness! (Sorry, I couldn't resist)
Pretty, pretty shawl. I'm with you on the need for order and symmetry - random is hard!
Hahaha. A trifecta of Jacks is a great idea. The shawl looks lovely!
Gorgeous shawl! I don't like "random" either, requires too much thinking!
The shawl is beautiful! The beads really are worth all that effort. I am like you and prefer a planned bead attack to randomness.
It always feels good to finish a shawl. Beautiful!!
LOL...random and I don't get along well, either. I got teased about it when a friend and I were making bracelets. The beads had to be symmetrical; I couldn't just string them randomly! The shawl is gorgeous!!
I love your shawl and I love that you beaded it.. I;ll bet that beadwork is really amazing.
Celaeno is such a gorgeous shawl, and I love the colour you chose!
And HI JACK! Just in time for the best day of the year, eh ;)
