It's A Wrap! The Truly Myrtle July Knit Along!


Wow! What a month! July buzzed passed in a blur of gorgeous shawls and hats! I was completely blown away by how many people joined in the knit along over in the Truly Myrtle Ravelry group!

You finished 77 beautiful shawls and hats! That's incredible! Well done :)


I was thrilled to hear lots of you say that you've learnt things during the kal.  I know that some of you learnt about lifelines, beading, following charts and blocking. That is just fantastic and it makes me really happy.


Several of you finished two and even three projects during the kal! That is some hefty knitting - well done :)


I was also pretty chuffed at how many of you took up the challenge to post modelled shots. It's a bit scary putting photos of ourselves online but isn't it great to see how everyone styles their shawls? I love it.


I wanted to also say a huge huge thank you to all the generous people that donated prizes for the kal. We had 15 fabulous prizes to give away. So THANK YOU!

If you're curious about who won what (or if you won!) pop over to the Ravelry thread and take a peek.

In the meantime, keep on chatting over there - it's been neat to get to know you a bit better.

Happy knitting and THANK YOU!
