Nice bright red merino sock yarn. Check.

Knit shawl. Check.

Decide yarn colour's not quite me. Check.

Better colour now. Check.

Spin shawl dry in mesh bag. Check.

Block shawl. Check.

Hang on - two loose yarn ends in middle of shawl? Oh, I see. Snagged and torn during spin drying, buggrit. Check.

Looks really bad on wrong side, decide will darn in ends before probably consigning to bin. Check.

That's pretty - lovely colour.
