Beautiful! Your color choices are perfection! I've lost the sense of urgency that I had in the first three weeks of the MKAL and I'm puttering along on clue 3. Seeing yours gives me motivation!
Oh great! I’m glad it gave you a boost to keep going. I think we all ebb and flow with projects, we just don’t notice it until we’re in a KAL or MKAL 😂 happy knitting!
I love your shawl. I would not have chosen those colors but they look great together in the shawl. That is what I love about these MKALs you get to see color combinations that you might not have picked but you can see how well they look together.
Yes! I’ve been loving seeing everyone’s combos! So many unexpected gems! What are you knitting on at the moment?
Wow, your shawl is amazing❤🥰🤗😍 I love the color combo😊
Thank you! 😊
What are you knitting on at the moment?
I’m knitting a baby blanket, just about finished. I don’t think I could knit like that😂. I’m an advanced beginner knitter😅
Hello from Germany! I found your podcast through the MKal (which I didn’t finish because it wasn’t for me 😂), but I loved it! And please, keep on making podcasts because I would love to see what you’re making next. Thanks a lot and have a great time
Good on you for stopping, it’s supposed to be enjoyable, not a chore! Thanks so much for the encouragement! I’ll remember your supportive comments when I get nervous 🤗
Your shawl turned out so beautiful 😍. Gorgeous drape and color and yowza such neat knitting. Well done, 👏. I am on the second cable section and determined to finish!
Thanks so much! I’m excited to see yours in a video 😍 is it with your own handspun?
Thank you for showing your shawl. I’m still on clue 2 and had a panic about my accent colour. My colours are quite similar to yours so seeing yours has given me confidence to continue.
Oh I’m so glad! Nothing like a mid project panic, especially when you’ve spent money on the yarn, you want to enjoy it! There are some incredible modifications people have been doing too. The advantage of waiting and seeing.
Having watched many of this project , I think your colours were the best.
Mel, your finished project is the best that I’ve seen. You do knit so well! I think some gold hats with grey color work, made from the MKAL leftovers, would be great for your family.💗💗💗
Oh I love that idea! Thanks so much 🤗
Definitely was a MYSTERY to us all. Well done! Amazing design from SW and amazing knitting from Mel. Thank you for sharing your adventures!
Thanks so much! What are you knitting on?
Your shawl turned out beautifully! Congratulations on finishing. I have never made a Stephen West pattern. Thought about doing the MKAL but was hesitant about the mystery. Did you see his new Hiberknitalong shawl? I think this is the one where I'll join in.
The MKAL is my first West knit. I will most definitely be casting on his Hiberknitalong shawl.
your MKAL is the first one that I would actually wear. Looks lovely!
Thanks so much! Yes I picked colours that I would wear, I love all of the bright ones but I probably wouldn’t wear them. However I’ve seen a few brights that were really well done. What are you knitting on at the moment?
Absolutely beautiful! Excellent color choices-👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you so much! 🤗
Everyone seems to say "If you don't want to see the MKAL look away" even when they list MKAL in their title and it makes me wonder why someone would be looking at all the MKAL videos on RUclips if they don't want to risk seeing it lol. I'm here for all the spoilers.
Welcome to the finished it group. It's lovely!
Some who have finished say "see you next year" but even after finishing my own I'm happy to hang about for a while and see all the finished shawls come up for display. It's a great opportunity to see how all the different colours are coming out.
Did you say you've been adding patterns to your list based on what you've seen others have done? What patterns would these be? Do tell.
Chaos unfolding is an understatement, thanks so much for your vlog, I started the MKAL late and Im still SLOGGING my way through clue 1! Your vlog has encouraged me to keep going,....I do the West MKAL shawls for the challenge and its definitely pushing me waaaay outside my comfort zone. Yours looks stunning, congratulations ! Perth Western Australia
Thanks so much Julie! ‘Slogging through’ is a great way to describe clue 1. You’ve got this 💪 yes I loved how much I learnt in just one project 👏 am I following you on Instagram yet? Hard to tell when Instagram names can be different to RUclips names. I’d love to see your colours!
Your shawl may be my favorite. Beautiful! Colors are perfect!
Aww Thank you! 😊
Love your finished shawl the colours are wonderful! I can’t understand why people didn’t like it or frogged it, I think it looks fantastic.
Thank you so much! I guess that’s the subjective side of any craft. I’m glad people frog work they’re not enjoying. There’s enough going on in life 😂 best to make your hobbies enjoyable. I know what you mean though, I loved it!
Your shawl is my favorite of all the color combinations I’ve seen!
Thanks so much 🤗
Of all the shawls for this MKAL love your colors the very best--good choice; well done-looks beautiful.
Thank you so much! 🤗
Your shawl is beautiful. This has been a slog for me, but your enthusiasm and description of how much you have learned is boost for me. Thank you!!!
Oh I’m so glad! It sure is great to learn so much from one project. I usually pick patterns with at least one new skill to learn… thus was next level 😂👏 you’ve got this 💪 and if you don’t, it doesn’t matter! This hobby is supposed to be fun 🎉
Mel, that is the most gorgeous one I've seen. Great job! This shawl is so wearable.
Thanks so much Chelle. What are you knitting on at the moment?
I don’t think you could have picked a better color combination. I LOVE this.
Thanks so much! I’m definitely happy with how wearable the combo is 👏 what are you knitting/crafting on?
@@Knitty_Mel oh man only just seeing this reply, oops! I’m having trouble sticking to one project so I keep casting on new things and bouncing around (which is unlike me, haha).
I’m working on the gem city shawl by em lyn knits to use up some advent mini skeins, the cardamom coffee hat by Caitlin Hunter, and the memories sweater by Heidi May. I’m also waiting on a delivery of some hunter green yarn to complement the ides of March colorway from gold finch fibers that I plan to use to make the camella hat by katrin schubert 😅😮💨
I can’t wait to see what you work on next, I’m new to your channel 🥰
It's just gorgeous! Your colors are so well suited to the design and look really lovely on you. It's really elegant!
I haven't done this shawl. I'm not feeling up to this level of knitting right now, but I've really enjoyed seeing the clues, and I always learn so much from seeing Stephen's videos! I wonder what his next shawl will be. If it's super easy, I might give it a try.
Thanks so much! Yes I’m so happy with how the colours worked into the shawl.
I totally get it! Knitting is supposed to bring joy, and you’ve got to go with what works at the time.
I wonder if the west knits hyberknit shawl KAL is a simpler pattern, it comes out in a day or two I think? It’s not a mystery so at least you can see if it’s something you like.
Happy knitting with whatever you’re enjoying 🤗
Love your colours. It’s beautiful!
Beautiful shawl. Love your color choices.
Thanks Lisa 🤗
Stunning shawl your colours are perfect
Thank you so much!
I love your color choices. I’ve looked at a number of finished ones, your colors worked out the best. I knitted a number is his patterns but never an MKAL. Congrats on a great job!
Thanks so much Susan! You’re very kind 🤗
I loved following your progress. It turned out beautifully! ❤ I want to cast one on now too. 😊
Thanks so much! 🤗 🤗 🤗 oh I hope you do cast on. , what colours do you think you’d try?
@@Knitty_Mel I picked John Arbon Devonia 4ply. The main color is Snow Ash, contrast color is Devonia Cream and accent color is Dark Skies.
@@iamjenortiz I’ve just looked them up, what a beautiful combination! I love that the snow ash has a beautiful heathered look 🤩
@@Knitty_Mel Thanks. I was able to pull them from stash. I love the combination too.
Good job !! I don't finished yet mine
Hello from France. See you soon on an other potcast
I’ve loved seeing that I-cord work in so many podcasts I can’t wait to have a go myself.
It’s so pretty!
Your shawl is beautiful and so are your colors!
Thank you so much!
It was so fun to see you also live in Geelong! I have lived here for over 20 years.
I was off and on about doing the MKAL. I am glad that I decided against it this year, not because it isn’t beautiful, but because there’s no way I would have been able to keep up. Yours is one of my favourites I’ve seen. Lovely colour choices.
What a small world 😊 I grew up in ocean grove but into Geelong 10 years ago. Are you in a knitting group? Not many about. Yes now that I’ve done one I’ll definitely be carefully looking at my schedule in October to see if I can take it on 😂 it consumed me but in a fun way 😂
Your shawl is beautiful!! I’m just following along with the madness 😂 I’m more of a crocheter, though my goal for next year is to become confident enough in my knitting to make my first sweater! Loving your videos and your cheerfulness!
Thanks so much!! Oh careful, you’ll knit your first sweater and be addicted forever 😂😂😂👏👏👏 I love crochet too! Having both really opens up your options. I’ll often crochet around a neckline line if it’s too loose etc. plus I always do a tubular cast on using a crochet hook. Very helpful to have both skills. Enjoy watching the madness 😂👏
Good morning thank you for showing us your shawl it is beautiful. I am working on the second half of the cable which I have really enjoyed knitting. I’m looking forward to see what you’re going to show us next week in making the cables. I live in the United States in Washington state. Every section I knit I get more excited about seeing the finished product and I love seeing everyone’s finish shawls, it really inspires me to keep going.
Sorry for the late reply! RUclips doesn’t notify me of every comment. Yet another new tech thing to learn 😆 how did you go? Love your MKAL?
So beautiful. I love your color choices. The shawl is gorgeous.
Thanks so much 🤗
Your yarn choices are stunning 🤩 Your knitting skills are amazing. I’m so glad your channel came across my feed. Fellow Aussie loving local yarn dyer suggestions so I can afford to buy them. Thank you for a great podcast 🎉 liked 👍🏼 subscribed 💯 bell 🔔
Awww!! You’re so kind! I’m so glad we’ve connected. Yes I often watch videos, get hooked on a yarn that I can’t get or afford 😂 happy knitting! What are you working on at the moment?
Love your shawl. Your knitting is so beautiful and your colours are gorgeous. I look forward to seeing more of your podcast.
Oh thanks so much! 🤗 what are you knitting on at the moment?
@@Knitty_Mel I'm working on the Cumulus Tee. Put it down for the entire summer, because I'm just not sure I have enough yarn, and it's a pair of OOAK skeins. Stripes? 😂
Hello and good morning from Germany❤ I am so happy that I found you and your wonderful mistery shawl. Congratulations! Heide
Hello Heide! Thanks so much! 🤗 I’ve only been to Germany once on a trip around Europe but Germany is the place I said I’d rather go back to. So beautiful!
Absolutely stunning! This is my first MKAL too & am only on clue 1. I am also using Louie & Lola yarn. Your shawl truly is an inspiration ❤
Oh amazing!! Which colours did you choose? Isn’t Karina an incredible dyer 😍 I’d love to see yours, are you on Instagram or ravelry?
You mentioned on clue 3 you took the cable off for that long strip section. Smart. I swichted to a short cable, but I just of another trick I've used before. Switch to DPNs (or needles without the cable) and when you put it away use a DPN holder like for socks. That way you won't loose stitches. I've done this on my massive scrappy square blanket where I used DPNs for the squares.
See this link for an example thenomeknitter.blogspot.com/2015/05/tutorial-double-pointed-needle-keeper.html?m=1
Your shawl is so beautiful. Haha love Clue 5! Congratulations on starting such a fabulous channel.
Oh if I could only hug you! 🤗 thanks!
I love it. Yours is one of my favorites so far. I would probably never wear some of the wild souls that Steven designs. They’re beautiful but not practical for me. I love your color choices they’re so wearable and really cohesive looking. Good job thanks for sharing. I love that your yarn was from Tasmania so good.
Yes I’m exactly the same. I enjoy some bright knits but I don’t tend to go a rainbow of colours in one piece. I just wouldn’t reach for it in my wardrobe. There are some incredible dyers in Tassie 🤩 what are you knitting at the moment?
So enjoyed watching your journey on this project
Oh thanks so much! Really appreciate it.
Your shawl looks amazing! I Love your colours and your podcast 😊 Greetings from Germany
Oh thanks so much Simone! 🤗 oh my, I love Germany so much, I’ve been there once but it’s not enough 🤩
I love your colors! I’m stuck on the strips. Restarted several times and now I’ve got it.
We’ll done! 👏
Your videos inspired me to cast this shawl on. I'm currently working on clue one and loving the process! Keep up the great videos.
Oh that’s incredible! Thanks so much for telling me. Ha ha you’re good to be enjoying Clue 1, it was slow going for me 😂 are you Tassie Girl on Insta?
Hi
Love seeing a fellow Aussie on utube. I’m in NSW northern tablelands. Love your shawl, great colours. I love to spin and had a baby blanket to do for a baby - they don’t wait so am well behind but am now looking to catch up. Hope you keep going with these podcasts.
Thanks so much! Oh I’d love to spin one day. It’s just out of reach at the moment, I’m definitely planning on it when I have more time though. Thanks for commenting fellow Aussie🤗
Congrats Mel, it turned out so beautifully. It was my first MKAL as well and what a blast, just like you I learned the same new things. Look forward to more from you as I love your colours and a good sense of humour is always a fun bonus💪🏻🫣🤣🥰
Thanks! Oh my, I love yours!! Thanks for the sticky tape photo trick, I gave it a try 😂 not as decent results though. I’ll work on it 😂 thanks for the support 🤗
@@Knitty_Mel Thanks for being one of my knitting companions!!
Your shawl is gorgeous!!!
Thanks so much Anne 🤗 and a huge thanks for subscribing!
It's stunning! Absolutely gorgeous!
Thank you! Cheers!
Love your color choice. The entire shawl is gorgeous! I bought the pattern before the Mkal started but I did not participate. I wanted to see how it turned out and look over color combos before I attempted it. However, I am quite intimidated by how intricate it all looks - so I may wait to tackle it when I have more time.
Thanks so much! I totally understand what you mean, however watching it all unfold is a great idea to take that pressure away. Honestly, his videos are so very clear so it’s an ideal pattern to try some new skills on. You can literally follow row by row. I think if I picked up the pattern with no videos mine would look very different 😂😂😂
I agree with Mel. The videos make it completely approachable. Stephen West is such an excellent teacher and he simplifies everything so it ends up looking WAY more complicated than it ever feels to knit.
Wow, super impressive!
Like everyone else, I have enjoyed seeing your progress and your reactions to each clue... especially with an Aussie accent 🤣
I am plodding along clue one still, but intrigued to dawdle along the rest of the way, with everyone else's helpful tips and tricks 😀
Thank you so much! Sorry for the late reply! How have you gone? Still enjoying it?
Congrats! It’s beautiful! Still working on mine hoping to be done by the end of the week.
Thanks! How did you go with your icord embellishments? Did you do the two either side like you thought you might?
@@Knitty_Mel I have not done it yet! But I will. I Just finished the last “wing” and I still have the rest of the chevron part to do.
Love love ur finished MKAL and your colours. I had to stop after clue 1 to finish some more urgent projects (birthday gifts etc) & I also found clue 1 a bit tedious. I’m inspired again to pick it up and keep going.
Thanks Claire! How did you go? Did you pick it up again?
Your shawl is so lovely and your colors work very well for this design! This is my second year participating in the MKAL. I'm currently on the second wing working clues 3 and 4 and hope to finish by mid-November.
Thanks so much! Yes Louie and Lola did a wonderful job with lot’s of their kits, I’m so happy with it! How exciting, will you be posting it on Instagram or ravelry? If so what’s your handle? I’d love to follow along! 🤗
Congratulations! Love your shawl ❤
Thanks so much Kelly! 🤗
Your colour palet is perfect!
Oh thank you!
Hi Mel, I bought the MKAL pattern but waited to make it.I wanted to see what colors would work. Your colors are just right for me. I am quite fair also.Congrats to you on just marching through without too much difficulty! 😊
Hi Caryl, aren’t you clever 👏 now you can knit one exactly the way you want it. I’m so glad the colours helped. What have you been knitting in the mean time?
I'm really enjoying your podcast. Thanks for taking the time to entertain us. Your MKAL shawl is lovely. Your right, that first section was a total drag, lol. I'll be happy when mine is done. I'm currently on section 4. Mandy
Thanks so much Mandy! You’re so kind! I’d love to see your colours! Are you in Instagram or ravelry? 🤗
@@Knitty_Mel Hi Mel, yes I'm on Ravelry as Gruffenbenelli. I need to take a more updated photo but my yarn choices are pictured.
@@mandycoker2074 oh your yarn is beautiful!! 😍 can’t wait to see it finished!
@@Knitty_Mel Thank You! I'm feeling pressure to continue knitting Christmas gifts so I'll have to embrace the pace as Stephen would say, lol. I do love it tho😁
The finished shawl looks gorgeous.
well done!
I love the colours you chose 😄🇬🇧
Thanks! You’re so kind to comment again. What are you knitting on at the moment? I’d love to know 🤗
Hi, I am an old fashioned flat knitter, I have tried circular needles but can never get the tension right I knit the English throw over way with the knitting needle tucked under my arm pit, I am knitting a fair isle 4 ply jumper for myself at the moment, I sometimes crochet but never have more than one project on the go at the same time,.
Looking forward to more of your videos, best wishes from the UK 😄
@@joandyke5776 I learned on straight needles and was taught to throw too, I’ve tried continental knitting because it looks so fast but I can’t unteach my hands the English way 😂 I can imagine it’s the same for you not having a needle to stabilize under your arm. Your jumper sounds amazing! Do you hold a colour in your left and right hand or do you just drop the second colour? Thanks for watching and commenting!! 🤗
Your shawl is beautiful! Mine is in a timeout as I have a test knit to complete.
Oh amazing! Are you on ravelry or Instagram so I can see what you’re test knitting once you’re alllowed to share it?
Your shawl looks amazing! I’ve almost finished mine too 😊 Have you watched the end of Steven’s video where he demonstrates how we can wear it? Yours does look lovely on you 😊
Oh thanks, I did watch it but I was weaving in my ends 😂 will watch it again! 🤗
WOW!! I love your Color choices. It’s so beautiful!!! I’m not brave enough to take on a Westknits MKAL. But follow every bit of it from the sidelines. Love it. Congratulations ! You’re so charming. I love listening to you.
Awww thanks so much!! What kind words! I don’t know about ‘brave enough’ I’m more nutty for giving it a go rather than brave 😂 what are you knitting at the moment?
I’m attempting the Letho Cardigan by Natasja Hornby. That’s a challenging one. I’m doing an online KAL with The Knitting Plqce and should be done by Dec 13. Haha. That’s a challenge. Also trying to keep up with all the Christmas Knits.
@@vinalini oh, time for me to look that up! Thanks!
finished clue one. Knitting my Maudie cardigan, modifying it to a v neck. will start clue 2 when the mood takes me.
Oh that sounds great, I will look up that pattern. Happy knitting!
@@Knitty_Melin fiberchats video 4 "humans of the mkal" one of those interviewed had a cool way to wear it.
@@jo-annefalconer6280 oh thanks!
Your mkal looks amazing, best colour choices I've seen so far!
Aww Thanks Rebecca! What are you knitting on at the moment?
@@Knitty_Mel one of my WIPs 😜 is the Reyna (Noora Backlund)I saw Ray wearing it on one their needles at the ready podcasts at it looked amazing...next minute I'm casting on 🤣🤣🤣
@@rebeccabono2482 oh I saw that episode and I thought the same thing but I resisted 😂 perfect for when you’ve got one pretty skein you want to show off 👏👏👏
Oh wow I love your yarn choice. I don’t do stevens shawls because they just seem so busy I do like them but when I saw yours I believe on Ravelry in the projects part it made think I might actually want to make this one and in similar colors. I love that your color choices weren’t so bold and they complimented each other. I will still debate on making it till I watch all the clues entirely 😂 I seen a lot of videos on how people couldn’t complete it. I hope if I cast on that I will finish
Yes I feel the same way, it needs to be wearable for me and my taste if I’m going to put all of that time in but I really enjoyed the community and challenge aspect of it. Apologies for the late reply! I’ve been away unwell and I’ve found I’ve missed a few comments.
I’ve watched this knitalong with interest. Well done to anyone who has taken part and finished, or even modified this shawl. A busy time of year at school in NZ. My students are heading into exams, so no time for such an intricate pattern. However, I’m seriously thinking of joining the Hiberknitalong which comes live on the 4th. I note Stephen seems easy on errors so maybe these are worth a try even if it doesn’t go exactly as written.
Yes I was actually relieved that he let’s you know in the videos when it’s important to have the right stitch count and when it’s not. I imagine it would be the same for the next one.
Oh indeed it is a busy season when you teach secondary! Same here in Australia. Have you ever knit with possum? I hear it’s common in NZ?
Absolutely beautiful GREAT CHOICE OF COLORS I AM JEALOUS!! Look at West’s choice on how to wear it, very attractive! 🧶😺😍🙏❤️. Joan
Thanks so much Joan!! 🤗 Have you been knitting it too?
Your shawl is lovely. I’m onto the last section on mine now- hoping to finish in the next day. I’m going to do the early bind off for mine I think. Thanks for your videos.
Oh congrats! It was a big knit for sure. I think that the early bind off looks beautiful, it’s a great option if you don’t want the extra depth and to keep it all more inline with the rest of the shawl.
Love the colours they really work well together. Well done for finishing.
Thanks so much 🤗
I love your shawl!
Thanks so much 😊
It turned out beautiful! You did a wonderful job presenting each clue.
Thanks so much Kimberly! 🤗 love the beanie you’re wearing in your photo ❤
Mel, your shawl is beautiful. I finished mine on the 31st. Loved the whole process and the FO. Now that it’s over, I’m having withdrawals. Lol. Thanks for sharing. -lajoyagirl
Wow you’re fast 💨 I haven’t seen it on Instagram yet. Eagerly awaiting a photo ❤
Fabulous ❤Congratulations 🎈
Thank you! Cheers!
Absolutely gorgeous ❤
Thank you! Cheers!
Great color choices. So pretty. ❤
Thank you! 🤗
Great job on the MKAL! I knit the gray and light too but my accent is red. Yours is fabulous! Isn’t the shape SO CRAZY?
Oh wow! It’d look incredible with red! Are you on Instagram? I don’t think I’ve seen one with a red accent yet. Sounds beautiful. The shape is crazy alright 😂 expected nothing less 😂
Great colors ❤
Thank you! Cheers!
Beautiful 👍
Looks amazing! Well done 😊
Thanks 😊 🤗
Bravo ! It is beautiful !
Thanks so much!
Absolutely beautiful x
Thank you! 😊
Congrats on your colour palette! I signed up, ordered yarn, but ended up not doing the MKAL. I might incorporate the joined loops from clue 1 and the i-cord insertions into cables, in another project, like a hat, at some point, because they are so cool.
Oh that’s such a great idea! Yes those were the real show stoppers! They’d be beautiful in something else 😍happy knitting!
I am working on the shawl but modified the placement of the sections as I do not like a lot of striping ... the modulating cables make up the clue four wedge and the cables run across the bottom except for the center and with a twisted rib around.
Ohhhh!!! That sounds incredible! Are you on Instagram or Ravelry? I’d love to see it! 👏
@@Knitty_Mel not finished yet but will post on ravelry when done
Looks fabulous Mel, well done! I'm almost thru one cabled section. You are so right about clue 1, it was just never ending, but did get easier, thankfully! I also love the short row wedges and twisted stitch sections.
Amazing! 👏 do you think you’ll knit it ‘as is’ or make some modifications?
I'll be knitting it as is!
@@Melkitty1000 can’t wait to see it 👏 happy knitting!!
Looks so good! I'm only on third repeat of the first long strip in accent colour. Definitely don't have a lot of knitting time currently. 💜💜💜
Knitting time can be so hard to get sometimes!
It’s beautiful, Mel. Congratulations 🎉. I bet it will cause quite a stir when you wear it out. I would love to hear what people say about it. Also what , if anything, inspires your colour choices as I loved these together as well as the colours of your Range shawl.
Thanks so much Cheryl! Well honestly with colours I just gravitate to particular colours that I like for myself. I am colour blind though so I will be seeing them a bit different to you 😂😂😂
@@Knitty_Mel How fascinating! Beauty in the eye of the beholder, eh?
Beautiful 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽😍
C'est si beau ! Merci merci !
Merci pour le commentaire, bon tricot !
Absolutely stunning Mel
Thanks so much Yvette, what are you knitting/crafting on at the moment?
@@Knitty_Mel I am on the last cable section of clue 2😀🙈 and I am on sleeve island of my Gingersnap by Truly Myrtle and desperately want to cast on Ranunculus as part of a KAL with the crafty stitches and independence crochet podcasts
@@Knitty_Mel What is your next project?
@@yvettedawson oh my! That’s amazing! Are you someone who has a bunch of WIPS going at once? Ooo I’m looking up the Gingersnap thanks! A ranunculous is definitely on my wish list too. I’ve just cast on for Creabeas new Cargill Cowl as the money for the pattern was going to a very important cause. My mission now is to work through my stash so I’m thinking of knitting a Scrappy Triangles top with all of my leftover sock yarn. How great is casting on new projects 👏
@@Knitty_Mel I am normally a monogamous knitter that is why my Gingersnap is on sleeve island, I did not get finished in time to start the MKAL that is why I am so desperate to finish it. I really want to cast on Ranunculus this month to join the KAL. I also have the Cargill pattern and the sweater pattern too. I would like to do a garter marler Cardigan with my stash using autumn colours
Hi there
Great to find a podcast from Australia. Will definitely look into yarn you chose.
I went wrong on the very first clue and have had to make adjustments all the way through. It will still be fine though in the end.
Check out Shauna Stitches Episode 62 for how to wear this shawl. Some good ideas.
Kindest regards
Lynn Albany Western Australia
Yes I think this shawl pattern is pretty forgiving that way. Annoying for you though. Thanks for the tip! Will have a watch 🤗
I have never taken part in an MKal, much too stressy for me, my knitting is my down time and I really don't like when it turns into a contest of sorts. I would like to ask which hat pattern you used for the hat at 12:49? Looks like maybe Lake Reed?
Good morning. Your shawl looks great. I finished mine yesterday also and I am in the process of blocking it before posting my finished picture. This was my first MKAL and my favorite is the cord edges…makes it look so neat.
www.ravelry.com/projects/jchood
I’ve just seen yours (thanks for the link!) and it’s absolutely beautiful!! ❤
My Ravelry is knitterboy472
Will check it out 🥰
Good morning thank you for showing us your shawl it is beautiful. I am working on the second half of the cable which I have really enjoyed knitting. I’m looking forward to see what you’re going to show us next week in making the cables. I live in the United States in Washington state. Every section I knit I get more excited about seeing the finished product and I love seeing everyone’s finish shawls, it really inspires me to keep going.
Thanks so much for commenting! Yes I think that’s a part of why I wanted to knit along as close to everyone as possible, such a fun community feel! 👏
