Kenzie KAL Progress - Week 4!

Hi everyone! I hope you are all enjoying this nice cool weather, it's finally starting to feel like Autumn! Today the fourth and final clue was posted of the Colormatic Knit-a-Long by Knit Purl Hunter, using the amazing yarn Kenzie from Skacel collection! Here's what my cowl looks like so far:

Sorry for the weird picture, it was cloudy this morning and it was hard to get true colors!
The third section of the cowl repeated the same stitch pattern as the second section, but swapping out colors changed up the look. I love the colors I chose for this project, and I think I'm really going to enjoy wearing the finished cowl, hopefully it stays chilly!

Like I mentioned, the fourth clue was posted this morning, you can see it here. I'll check back with you all when I get this thing finished up!

Happy Knitting!

Kenzie KAL Progress - Week 3!

So, the first half of the Kenzie Knit-a-long is finished, and here's what my cowl looks like so far:

The second section involved a mosaic slip-stitch pattern which was a little hard for me to get into the rhythm of, but once I did a few repeats, the knitting was easy and quick. I must confess, I'm not completely finished with the second clue (oops!), I still have about an inch of knitting left to do before I start the third clue, which was posted this morning.

The third clue can be found here, along with all the other Knit-a-Long clues. Remember- this is a free Knit-a-Long, no need to pay for a pattern! Just grab 4 colors of Kenzie that you like and get to knitting! I'll check in with you all again next week to show you what the third clue looked like, and to get to work on the fourth and final clue!

Colormatic KAL - Week 1

Hi everyone! Today is the first day of the Colormatic KAL from Knit Purl Hunter! I am so excited to get started on my cowl! The first clue of the mystery pattern was released this morning! Click here to get the first clue.

As you can see, I've printed out my first clue, gathered my needles, and decided on my color placement. This part was a little hard to figure out, but Michelle (the designer) gives you some good advise on how to place your colors. I'm going to cast on tonight and get to knitting!

Check back here next Thursday to see my progress, and also for the link to the second clue! All info on this Knit-a-Long can be found here.

Thanks for reading, and if you are participating in this Knit-a-Long, I'd love to hear from you!

Colormatic - A Mystery Knit-a-Long!

Hi everyone! Kaity here, and I am very excited to tell you about a new Mystery Knit-a-Long that I am going to be participating in using one of my favorite new yarns "Kenzie". If you remember a while back, Anne kept you posted here on a Mystery Knit-a-Long using a new yarn from the Fiber Company. If you want to check out her posts on that project, click here.

The way this Knit-a-Long using Kenzie works is that you pick out 4 colors of Kenzie (and trust me, it comes in GREAT colors!), and once a week on THURSDAYS, a new clue will be released. This will be a 4 week Knit-a-Long, so that by the end of October, you have finished your project!

The finished project will be some sort of cowl, but what it looks like is a Mystery! The first clue will be posted tomorrow, Thursday October 3rd at 9am EDT, 6am here in Ventura! You can find all the info at Knit Purl Hunter, where the clues will be posted. Bonus: this is a FREE Knit-a-Long, yay!

Stay tuned to this blog to see my progress as a work through the clues, I'm very excited about it! I hope you'll join me! :)
