So in my excitement and KAL inexperience (it’s my first time as a KAL organizer), I realized that while the Pavo Real KAL began yesterday on ravelry, I completely neglected to post about it HERE. FAIL*. Hopefully, it will sound like so much fun, some of you will still want to join in and forgive my gaffe.
So without further delay, here are the details:
The KAL’s homebase is in the KSD group on ravelry. The only real rules are use KSD yarn (because it’s a KSD knitalong, right?) and check with me if you have any major pattern issues before freaking out mid-forum (I’m not expecting any real problems since the pattern’s been knit by several different knitters, but you never know.).
If you’re on twitter, tweet with the hashtag #PavoKAL to join in on the conversation there.
The KAL’s flickr group can be found HERE.
This is a month-long knitalong for February, so join in at any time and share your projects. I can’t wait to see them. We’ll aim for finished shawls by the 28th, but since life sometimes has other plans, just show us what you’ve got along the way. It’s the journey, right?
And again, not to plug it too hard, except I think it would help new laceknitters, but if you love the look of these lace shawls but are intimidated by hole-y knitting and charts and markers, consider signing up for my online Pavo Real lace class. I promise to make you more confident and capable with lace knitting, and you’ll get a lovely shawl to boot!
*I could blame it on the groundhog. He is awfully compelling.
