    I really love top you are wearing in this video - the style and colours! I am a very very new beginner to knitting so MKAL is a distant dream for me right now... it is nice to enjoy the enthusiasm of others though. I like your choice of subtle colours for the shawl - excited to see the results!

      Thank you!! It’s the mystic square by James Watts. I knit it in Lion brand Ferris Wheel yarn. I hope you can join in next year. There definitely is a lot of support with the video companion.

    I love your heathered color choices - based on what we’ve seen so far I think those will be lovely!

    I LOVE Kelbourne Woolens! I actually also used camper for Twists & Turns back in 2022-it makes such a gorgeous, soft fabric and I almost wish I went that direction again this year. There’s just something about those heathered yarns!
    Instead I picked up some locally dyed sock yarn (Duck Fibers) from a local fiber festival in two very Stephen West colors-this semi-solid bright medium blue color called Caribbean blue and a lighter turquoise blue with neon green and black speckles. I didn’t swatch but safe to say I’m completely obsessed with these two colors together. Still sort of on the fence about a mohair dare but I’m thinking a neon green would be very fun. Happy knitting!

      That’s awesome I’m loving how soft it is too. It’s my first time knitting with their yarn. Your color choices sound amazing the neon green mohair would be so fun. I think you should do it!

    This was so fun to watch! I'm not participating this year, so I'm just living vicariously through everyone and it's a great time. Excited to see your progress!

    I am so late but I am going to join! I also decided to go a different route for yarn to save some coins! This is my first Mkal with Stephen West! I am super excited! I cant wait to see it come together. 😊

    Aww, it's so sweet to see you knitting with your little one sleeping on you. 😍 I'm not doing the MKAL this year as I have a ton of other projects to finish, but I will be following yours to see how it turns out. 😊 I think the colors you chose are beautiful! I'm also interested to see if your alpaca shows the color variations in the end product. None of the ones I've ever used have, but I'd love to find a brand that does because they always look so pretty in the skein! Looking forward to your next video, and thank you for sharing! ❤

      Hehe thank god for those carriers, what a life saver. Uh oh, I really hope some of the colors show through. I guess we will find out, clue 2 will call for mohair 🤞🏽

    This is my first year joining. I’m using 2 skeins from ruby & roses a speckled neon yellow, and 2 skeins of neon coral from 316 dye studio.
