Building Blocks

Yesterday was spent working on Building Blocks - the Stephen West Mystery Knit-a-Long. The second clue is out and I'm barely through the first clue. I don't think I'm ruining the mystery to anyone who is participating but just in case I've added the picture at the end of my post.

There is a new throw pattern from Kaffe Fassett. And it's a free download on Ravelry...

I think that the throw would look amazing knit in Rowan's Hemp Tweed.

Building Blocks - I'm using tosh merino light on 3.5mm needles. I normally would knit a shawl in merino light on a larger needle but Stephen suggested going with a slightly smaller needle for a tighter knit.

The pattern is very well written. If there is something Stephen thinks you might be tripped up on, he makes a video for you to watch.

I'm not sure how much knitting there will be tonight. It's going to be a bit tense. Hopefully the Jays find their bats.
