Color Spell Shawl KAL Catch-Up 20/07/24
So, we've made it through the first week of our Color Spell Shawl Knit-along, and what a week it's been! From choosing our shades to mastering those first stitches, it's been a lovely week of creativity and camaraderie.
I am very much enjoying knitting the Color Spell Shawl by Joji Locatelli. It's one of those patterns that really keeps you going. I've had to be very strict with myself to stop knitting for a while and write this! I know some of you are finding it just as difficult to put down!
Still want to join us?
The knit-along is running until 23 August so there is plenty of time for you to join in. With 56 colours of Edelweiss Alpaka 4-ply 25g mini balls, choosing the perfect shades for your Color Spell Shawl can be a bit overwhelming, right? Don't worry, we're here to help you!
You can either go for one of our yummy yarn bundles that we've put together or, if you want something a bit different, you can drop us an email info@allabouttheyarn.co.uk and we're very happy to play with colours to find a combination you're happy with.
I loved helping to pick out colours for this "50 Shades of Pink" request:
Stitching Success!
Remember that feeling when you knit your first stitch? It's like magic, right? Watching your project come to life one stitch at a time is so rewarding. And, if you need any help along the way, that's all part of joining a knit-along.
From sharing your beginning stitches...
...to making progress through the week...
It's been lovely sharing starting the Color Spell shawl with knitty friends!
Zooming-along!
Our first Zoom meeting was great! It was so good to chat and make a start on our shawls. The laughter, the camaraderie, the shared love for knitting – it was truly a magical experience. And guess what? Our next meeting is just around the corner on Friday 26 July.
Don't forget, if you want to join our Zoom meetings, all you have to do is purchase one of our Edelweiss Alpaka yarn bundles. Or if you prefer, you can choose your own colours and still be part of the fun. The more, the merrier!
The knit-along runs until 23 August, so there's still plenty of time to jump in and get knitting. Whether you're a seasoned stitcher or a newbie to the knitting world, this knit-along is for everyone. So grab your needles, pick your colours, and let's create something beautiful together!
