In the Pink (or Black)

Once again, I took on what is probably an unreasonable challenge. I'm trying to make 11 shawls in 2011 (didn't make 10 in 2010 either). My niece gave me some fingering weight yarn in shades of black/gray with long color runs for Christmas -- so I thought the "In the Pink" shawl would be perfect. In my case, it's more like "in the black."

I finished the center medallion this afternoon. Hopefully the side pieces will go as easily/quickly.
