Friday Fantasy Knits and Crescent Shawls

Dreaming of knitting a crescent shawl....


The Summer's end is in site and we actually have a cold day here in Colorado as the hottest month is at it's end.  In need of a shawl for the end of August or perhaps a light Fall one?  Check these out and see if any inspiration pops up!  I've included three shawl KALS coming up in August at the bottom.



3 Color Cashmere Shawl









Ginkgo Crescent- Free Pattern










Spindrift Shawl











Dolores













 





Please note the yarn suggested takes awhile to be delivered, but it is gorgeous and I thought worth sharing even if you can't start the KAL on time (unless you've got some amazing stash!).  I'll be keeping an eye on it to see the final results which ought to be awesome.




 
























And a Crescent Shawl KAL coming up August 20th!
Details- 
"Designed for the 10th anniversary of the Hill Country Yarn Crawl but open to everyone on Ravelry, this Mystery is all about the interplay of two colors combined with interesting textures.
The Mystery Knit-Along will be presented in four weekly clues, which will be arriving automatically in your Ravelry library as pattern updates - the first clue will be released on August 20th and the final clue on Sept. 10th. The cost is only $1 until Sept. 3rd; after that the pattern will be available at the regular price of $6.50.
The pattern includes two shapes to choose from: my classic crescent shawl, worked the top down and shaped with easy garter stitch short rows; and a rectangular stole, which is worked sideways to avoid tricky center joins."

"We are having a Beachcomber KAL!! Come join in on the fun and prizes during the month of August in the Chelsea Berkompas Ravelry Group!"







Dreamin' On
