Thanks Melissa, can't wait to add this Rachel Shawl to my collection. (OK, I just have the one other, Melissa knit me for Christmas)
edited by Mel (hope you don't mind Kelli) : since I just posted about the kal last night and the post is buried now I'm adding the link to the pattern we're doing : Rachel's Shawl can be found here ~ the link works even if you're not a Ravelry member but you do have to use paypal for purchase. Additional knitalong info can be found here!!
thank goodness there will be another one besides the masses I've made :) ~ thanks for playing along
ReplyDeleteOkay, so I have fingering weight (a ton of fingering weight) and doubled sounds good--what size needle are you thinking Kelli?
ReplyDeleteA US 7 is working well for me~
DeleteI swatched! GASP
ReplyDeleteA good gasp or a bed gasp? Usually gasp means bad...have you decided on a yarn?
ReplyDeleteA shocked GASP as I am not usually a swatcher.
ReplyDeleteI have some Blue Sky Alpaca stashed for a lace project and its a deep mauve color. I used a 7 but I think I am going to have to go size 6. The yarn doubled is lovely though--the drape is going to be amazing. Would have never thought to double it?! Sometimes a good poke is good for the creativity. Your post gave me that AHA moment.
