Wedding Shawl

I'm making steady progress on the shawl I'm knitting for my wedding. Lately it's been feeling a little bit like "one step forward, two steps back" in terms of progress. I've had to rip back to a lifeline three or four times now (lifelines are inserted through the live stiches in order to hold them in place if you have to remove the needles and rip backwards. The can be seen here as the pink/blue thread . . . when the project is done they'll be removed.) But thank goodness I did put those lifelines in!

I'm over halfway done with the center panel. Once I'm done, I'll have to add the edging. At this rate, I'm pretty sure I'll finish by February.
