Eagle's Flight Socks

I've finished my KAL socks, and what a great pattern! I love them in the Opal yarn, as well. Lovely, soft yarn and great colourway. A number of people on the Ravelry group have finished their socks as well, and they all are wonderful. This is a pattern that lends itself to both solid and variegated yarns equally.

Sock KAL

This month we started another knit-along. In keeping with our sock month, we chose a great free sock pattern, Eagle's Flight, which we are using with permission.

It took me a while to decide what sock yarn to use, but I have finally started and am loving this sock.

The yarn I chose is Opal Rainforest, in the Frosch colourway. This yarn is wonderfully soft, and because it is a long colour repeat, it lends itself nicely to the pattern. I'm calling them Eagles over the Water in my Ravelry projects.

We have a nice group of knitters working along on this sock together. Please stop by if you are on Ravelry.

The Shawl in Triplicate

As promised, here are the three shawls knit by members of our local knitting group for the Kauni KAL.

We only wish Shelley could have been there for the photo shoot with her shawl!!

(Kate, Rona and Brenda)

What is the most fascinating is that we each knit the shawl out of less than 150g of Kauni. Yet look at the size difference on them ... it's all about tension and gauge!!

This KAL was so much fun, with lots of great knitters.

Now we turn our attention to a sock KAL, starting on March 15th. The details are on Ravelry, at the Fun Knits group.
