Turns out, I found the most perfect yarn for it in my stash (which is mostly in storage, but I got lucky and found this single skein of Wandering Cat Yarns still out). Your didn't really think I could part with ALL my yarn at once? Have to let go in stages. :o)
Valerie and her mom Rhonda are having an anniversary contest, for their Wandering Cat Yarns shop turns one year old! There's plenty of time (until June 19th) and many ways to get a chance of winning this lovely shawl, and some yarn! Read about it here.
Since this shawl is supposed to look like dragon scales, I could not resist, and use this yarn, even though it's only 400yds, and you'll need ~ 600yds for the original version, but the name of the colorway is - Georges dragon!!! How could I not use it? It's going to be a shawlette, but that's fine. I'll expect to finish it in the next couple of days.
And for those who just can't be without a picture of the pups, here's one of my favorites (and there are many):
I love them when they are sleeping!

Happy and Denny look like angels, they look so sweet!! there is quite a lot of sister;y and brotherly love about today!!! Gorgeous wool, I love it and the pattern too!!
ack total sweetness!
I've yet to try Wandering Cat yarns, the pattern really makes this yarn pop.
Oh, what a dear, sweet picture of the pups! That belongs on a calendar or in a book. Warms my heart just to look at it!
Such sweet boys. It's a good thing that you left some yarn out to knit with!
There's nothing like zoning out and knitting an easy lace pattern. Mind you your easy is very different from my easy. You amaze me how fast you get projects done, and that's got to be the cutest picture of the boys.
And now they sleep! This photo should be on a Calendar! So precious! A great memory caught on film! :)
One would almost imagine they were fond of each other! Lovely green in the yarn..
Hattest Du mal "Angst" wegen diesen beiden, Monika? ;oD
Ich staune, wie fotogen, sie sind! Meine schauen immer weg oder wachen sofort auf und trotteln weg, wenn sie das Kamera klicken hören! ;oD
LG Hanne,CH.

Shawl is looking great - I've always wondered what that colourway would look like knit up
