Haven't been much for taking part in these KALs that everyone is talking about; either I'm not organized enough (pattern and yarn at the ready) or the thought of having to actually knit and finish something in a specific time frame was too much for me to take on. Ask me about knitting a sweater as a gift for someone for Christmas! However, the 2 Knit Lit Chicks are having a
Kardigan KAL starting February 1st and I am here to tell you that I am ready! Yes, a whole two weeks ahead of time! Awhile back I talked about Elizabeth Doherty's beautiful
Meris cardigan and this is going to be my project:
I'm going to use Quince and Co's Finch in a beautiful green color called Lichen which is the yarn used for the sample in a color called Sorbet. In the meantime, there are a few other things on the needles that need my attention, such as finishing a second Reykjavik mitten:
I liked the first pair so much I had to do a second pair for myself. Then there's the matter of finishing the second Austerman Step sock for my husband:
Happy
Fiber Arts Friday everyone! Check out what others have been up to.
You do absolutely beautiful work!

That cardigan looks like a great spring project. There are going to be quite a few KAL and CAL coming up at Green Planet after they move. Everyone can join.
ReplyDeleteHope you have fun in your KAL....I've never done one before either.
ReplyDeleteI suck at KALs! I mean, really suck. I have such good intentions, but I never pull it off. LOL. Good luck with yours. It's a pretty cardi!
ReplyDeleteOh such a wonderful sweater for a KAL! I want to see this yarn, it sounds very pretty! Oh I'm excited for this!
ReplyDeleteI like that cardigan. I expect it will be lovely in green. :-) Good luck with the KAL.
ReplyDeleteooooh,that cardi is beautiful. I can't wait to see your progress on it. I've been favoriting a bunch of patterns recently. I'm getting the itch to knit my own. Love those socks, they are the perfect colors. The mitten is super awesome too!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your KAL, that's a sweet looking sweater. Your mittens look great and those socks are super cool. I love Austermann Step yarn, so soft and it makes such toasty socks.
