Welcome to our summer KAL - A Recipe For Love!

I’m so excited to share this gorgeous, squishy shawl with you! The fairies wanted something big and bold and bright and really easy to knit because let’s face it, who wants to think when it’s hot outside!

A Recipe For Love has four stitches in it, you can’t get much easier than that, and most of it is worked in variations of garter stitch, with a few holes thrown in to keep you from nodding off entirely!

Choose your four favorite colors of fingering weight yarn - or if you want to have a little bit more fun, throw in a few extra colors for the garter stripe bits!

The fairies also decided they want to give away PRIZES! Lots of lovely prizes - you don’t want to miss out on the chance to win!

Our KAL will kick off on July 13th in my Criminal Knits…for the Serial Knitter in all of us Group. Come join us for all the fun and mayhem! (and the PRIZES!)
