Location: The comfort of your own location - this is a zoom class
Instructor: Liz Daly
Description:
Our Newish Knitter KAL is for knitters who have finished Knit101 and Knit 102 and are wondering what to knit next. All of these patterns are great places to practice your stitches and learn how to read patterns. This KAL is also for more experienced knitters who want to socialize with others while knitting a project where you can knit and chat at the same time.
Liz knit this scarf once and really enjoyed both the pattern and the yarn so much she is going to knit it again for this KAL. The shawl is great sized shawl that has some texture and uses the self-striping yarn to add some pizzaz to the shawl. You will not believe that this Bozzolo yarn is 100% cotton! It is so soft to knit with.
There is no charge for this virtual get-together, however, we ask that you purchase yarn from the store for this project. When you purchase your yarn write in the comments section that you would like to be added to the KAL! Don't worry if you can't make all of the sessions. We'd love to have you when you can make it.

- Please purchase and download Snail Trail Shawl from Ravelry
- US 7 32" circular needles or size to get gauge. You might need to adjust the size of your needle based on how you personally knit.
