So, the malabrigo junkies had this great idea to have a malabrigo march. There are a bunch of KALs and contests going on. I love malabrigo, so I'm doing a few KALs plus a few things on my own.
I'm done with 2 hats already
Amanda Hat, which is available on ravelry as a free download. I love the colorway I used. It's called snowbird and looks like the bright colorful birds that pop out of the landscape when there's snow. My camera is on its last elbows, so the colors aren't quite right. It seems that the reds are over-saturated and the greens under-saturated these days. I think the CCD is going.
I usually kind of cross over the boundary of the round on patterns like that. I wasn't quite sure about this one to start with so I tried to follow the pattern exactly, even though it went against my instincts. You can see the result as follows:
It looks much nicer once I start doing what I tell myself is right.
Koolhaas, which you can buy from knitting daily's pattern store. Mine is done now, but I have not yet photographed the completeness. The colorway is burgundy.
Also, Aibhlinn, which I've always wanted to do.
I'm also trying to finish my Mr. Greenjeans in Mariposa and I'm working on Tam C from Three Tams in Natural and some color of silk garden. I don't have good pictures of these yet.
Here are a couple of pictures of my finished Mystic Waters Shawl.
Also, Spring is here!
