Some Finished Adrifts

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010

There are lots of busy knitters finishing up their adrift cardigan for our KAL.  I asked the first few to finish if I could post their finished photos so you could see how they beautifully they are all turning out!

From top to bottom:

First row we have Tricotonrideau using a lovely white Cashmere yarn and Flutterby uses Knit Picks shadow tonal laceweight in a vivid red.

Second row ewephoric is using Cascade’s alpaca lace and she has added a lace pattern to the front panels that I just adore!  Next to her is Cathwood using Luna bluefaced leicester/silk yarn showing us that it works really well with a variegated yarn.

Bottom row we have our last two debindubai uses some lovely bright posh yarn and the cardigan looks just perfect with that outfit!  Our final knitter fiddleflower is using malabrigo lace and made the cardigan her own with shorter front panels and the longer 3/4 sleeve option.

Thank you for everyone doing the KAL with m

Adrift KAL

Monday, May 31st, 2010

For anyone who has been planning on starting Adrift soon you may be interested in joining our KAL (knit along) at my Stolen Stitches group on Ravelry.  It is officially starting tomorrow on June 1st (with a few getting an early head start)!  I’ll be popping in to check posts daily (if possible) so between me and all the support from fellow knitters it should be a big help in getting the cardigan finished in time to use this summer!

Adrift KAL

Monday, May 10th, 2010

There has been a lot of interest in my newest pattern Adrift.  I’ve suggested a KAL (knit-a-long) on my Stolen Stitches group on Ravelry so if you are knitting this cardigan and want some company for all that st st come join us!  Right now knitters are just getting started with yarn choices and swatching so your ideas and suggestions are very welcome.  Some knitters are finishing other projects and waiting for yarn to arrive so they aren’t planning on starting until June,  maybe that would suit you?

I’ve not had much experience with a KAL  before so I’m just figuring out how this works as I go along.  If you have any suggests I’m very open to ideas.
