Mystery KAL and the finale of the big project...

I'm trying something totally new for me, and I'm pretty excited about it!

Here's the information from Michelle Hunter's blog:

How does the Knit Along (KAL) work?
  • A portion of the pattern is posted every Thursday in April at knitpurlhunter.com
  • Questions are monitored daily and on Ravelry in the Knit Purl Hunter group
  • Completed projects are eligible for prizes furnished by our sponsor, Skacel Collection
  • No registration is required
  • It’s FREE!
All I know is that every week there will be a new post with the next part of the pattern, and Ridgely is "A two-colored shawlette perfect as a stylish neck accessory or to warm the shoulders on a cool spring evening!"

Here's the start for Ridgely...

1. Beautiful yarn... I can't believe how soft and lovely this yarn is...


This is CoBaSi.
55% Cotton
21% Nylon (Polyamide)
16% Bamboo
8% Silk

2. Week 1:
Gauge close enough on 6's. I was grateful for the video on lifelines - I only needed to use one once, but that's all it really takes for a BIG goof up on a lace projects. And this is a little bit of a slippery yarn.

 Looking forward to the next section of the pattern being released tomorrow!
And the finale for my big project! Class at Yarn Harbor was helpful.




Will be moving the buttons around a bit so everything is even on both sides.
