Shawl in a Ball LIVE

Join us on Saturday, March 10, from 10 AM to 5 PM at the Musquodoboit Harbour Public Library to knit your very own shawl!

We are just about at capacity so let us know soon if you would like to attend so that you can be added to the email list to get the full details.  If you're not sure, read up on the project in my previous posts here and here.

Some of the things that we will cover as we work through the shawl will be increasing and decreasing methods, using a garter bar, tension, embellishing, and other ways of modifying and customizing the project.

In the meantime, I'm working on translating the hand knit lace pattern of the Kohi Shawl, by Pineapple Bird Knits, to machine knit, also using the Shawl in a Ball yarn, and I have encountered some very unexpected challenges that have made this project a very valuable learning opportunity.  I hope to be able to post about it soon, and to also talk about it during our workshop at the library.  At the very least there will be lots of samples to show and tell!
