The Kaffe Fassett KAL started yesterday. And so did I!
It's going to be:
- Scrappy
- Random
- Fingering-weight (instead of worsted)
- From stash* (because I have a ton)
There are leftovers from Parcheesi amongst my choices, and even some yarn reclaimed from a large experimental now-frogged Log Cabin square; Socks That Rock, Jitterbug, Regia, handspun, and a whole lotta Who-Knows-What!
I completed one square last night, and I *love* how the colors played, but it's a wonky M1 version and I may try the other.
*Feeling a little guilty that it's a Rowan-sponsored KAL, I may stop by my LYS and see if they have some Rowan Fine Art or something that I can add.
This is going to be fun to watch, as you always create the most beautiful projects from your stash.
It’s going to be awesome!
Man, I love his styling. The colorwork is sublime.
Your Parcheesi is one of my most favorite projects ever, so I can’t wait to see what you create with this project!
Oh Oh… I see a beauty in the making here, good luck!
Agree with the wise folks above. Love, love, love your Parcheesi, and your color sense is inspiring. I’m sure a little Rowan Fine Art could be added to the mix.
I wouldn’t feel too guilty about yarn choice on this one. They’re selling plenty of Rowan. And let’s face it, it’s not like you won’t ever be buying Rowan again in your life. Use what you’ve got. Unless you need an EXCUSE to get some Fine Art, then go ahead. 😀
oh yeah, the Fine Art is going to be a great addition – lovely yarn/colors and it stripes!
