May KAL

For our May KAL we decided to do a Market Bag.  These are perfect for this weather as you go to your favorite farmer's market.  Throw in your fruits and veggies or other great finds and feel environmentally friendly.

This is also a great time to start using cotton or cotton blends as well as linen.  They'er wonderful to work with in warm weather and very durable, not to mention washable.  I decided to use Cascade's Sierra yarn. It 50% Cotton, 50% Wool.  I am loving how it's turning out!!!  Great drape and even better color. Take a look:


You only need two skeins and we have lots of colors and if you're looking for something a little different then we've got more options for you too. The KAL is free and every Thursday night from 5-7pm. We have a post started about it on Ravelry as well. :)



 For those of who read the Wild Fire post and would like to know which color I ended up choosing for my Chevron Lace Cardigan, here it is:


I went with Madame C.J. Walker. The gray hues in it flowed so well and were going to make a more consistent looking top.  Thank you for your help in deciding and I will probably be coming to you again for your votes. Have a lovely day. :)
