My first KAL ever :-). First step : go find the perfect yarn for it! I thnink I’m going to go for a deep red.
13/9: so… I found THE yarn and… It’s grey/blue/brown, not red ;-)
21/09
after several swatching episodes and a flase start with needles 3.75 mm, I finally cast on with 3 mm’s last week-end (thank you, Andi and the KAL community for your tips! 4 days in and I’m done with the upper-back :-) This is knitting up pretty quickly!!!
22/9: started the front panel.
01/10: finished the body and used just 2 skeins for it, which means I’ll probably be ok with 3 skeins to complete the project instead of 5 as I thought.
Looking very good so far but I really hope it will stretch with the blocking as it seemms very very tight for me… fingers crossed!
