New Year, New KAL
Coincident with the new year, Shells and I have started a Kelmscott KAL. It is such a gorgeous design. Three days into the KAL, I have managed about seven inches while Shells has bund off the back and started a sleeve. I am knitting back and the fronts together, so it is a nice mix of reverse st st and the lace pattern charted on every row(RS as well as WS). My yarn is Knit Picks Wool of Andes Fairytale.

ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely cardigan you are doing.And what a great but also a complicated one.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty! I also like the new look of your blog!
ReplyDeleteI love the cricket pullover! I am going to make two for my grandsons to coordinate with a similar sweater I made for their dad. Do you remember what is the yardage in each 50gm skein? Thanks.
ReplyDelete@Thais..Do you have a specific yarn in mind? For the yarn weight used in Cricket pullover, I would guess, 120-150 yards/ 50 gm.
ReplyDeleteSalaam Sis! That is beautiful work as usual, mashaALLAH. How have you been?
