Yarn - Jojoland Wool Yarn fingering weight - 22 WPI - fingering weight
Top swatch was done on size 7 needles. I liked this swatch best unblocked but now that I blocked it (a bit too severly), it seems more open and floppy. In Texas, this might be an advantage
Bottom swatch was done on size 4 needles. Unblocked I thought it was too dense and firm, but it opened up a bit with blocking.
What does everyone else think?

Size 7s will work faster and make a bigger shawl!
Nice work!
They're both very pretty. It's really a personal preference question.
I went through the same thing with my linen fingering weight Barbara shawl from the same book and went with the 4s. Took pictures this morning and will be posting them later on today.
Love the Stahman book and all the patterns in it.
I like the size 7 swatch, but if it's really floppy when blocked, try size 6 (helpful, aren't I?).
And thaty's a beautiful pattern - have fun knitting it!
