my first kal ~ by guest blogger lori





hello and happy new year! this is my first knit along and i couldn't be happier to

be joining in. my name is lori (this is also my first time to guest post, so i hope i'm

getting this right) i'm really looking forward to making leaves of grass, this time for me.

last summer i made this for a gift (ravelry link), in a blanket size, using worsted weight (blog post here). i've wanted to knit with loft, jared floods wool, since seeing it at my lys. and especially this color, postcard. i'm going to do the edging in fossil. 

 

 wool in better light on my fake stove  :)

 

i was having trouble photographing this morning because of the rain and clouds,
but postcard is a lovely greyish pink color. i've had this in my stash, looking forward to casting
on for some time. this morning i did, and am almost done with chart a. and really looking
forward to getting on circulars soon. and i'm very much looking forward to seeing all the
lovely pi shawls here. thank you melissa for having this kal. so much fun!
