Trimming the umbrella

So what happens if the weather during the Midwinter Festival is rainy all day?
An umbrella seems just the thing... only I cannot possibly have a modern day umbrella when I am putting in so much effort with the rest of the costume.  So I have bought a wheat colored umbrella and I am trimming it with a crocheted edge... But let us just say that this is taking a while!

Midwinter Fair shawl

One down.... hundreds (?) to go... If I crochet enough of these lovely delicate flowers and then sew them all together, oh what a lovely shawl I will have to keep me warm at the Midwinter Fair... This crocheted flower is only about an inch and a half in diameter though, so I had better get going!
