KALing Away

Sometimes I really enjoy knitting along with other people.  I can ask questions if I have a problem and someone will help me out.  I like seeing everyone's results and color choices.  I don't have a local knitting group but instead have a worldwide knitting group thanks to Ravelry.

Lately I've been participating in two different knit-a-longs.  The first is for Anne Hanson's fall club.  The project is called Sonneblume and it is a big green sunflower shawl.  The start of this project is the most unusual I've ever done.  Thankfully the group points the way and answers questions! This project takes all my brain power so I mostly knit it during lunch and when I am fully awake. I'm quite sure I won't finish this before the October project arrives. Maybe before Christmas? Here is my progress so far.


The other KAL is for a Romi shawl called Carson.  This one has been quick and easy.  This is good TV-before-bedtime knitting.  I went for fall colors.  I think it will end up looking like the sunset.  Here's what I've done so far.

They're both pretty, but the first one is STUNNING. I'm sorry I missed that club, but there's no way I'd have time. I already have one pretty KAL shawlette barely more than cast on, and I believe it started June 20-something and is long since "over"...
