a little bit of knitting  a blog in which I ramble on about the knitting I do for Designs by Emily

Just for fun, I thought I’d do June’s free pattern of the month as a KAL.  After we’re finished, I’ll put the entire pattern up on the website.  Here are the details:

Start: Monday, June 23
Needles: Size 7
Yarn: 100% Cotton for Dishcloths (like Sugar ‘n Cream or Peaches ‘n Creme)
Color: Red would be good, or any solid color you like
Details:  I’ll post 9-10 lines here on my blog per day until the KAL is done
Theme Hint: On the Farm

You don’t need to sign up to participate or even let me know that you’re Knitting along.  But if you’re having fun, or would like to “chat” with someone, leave a comment.

If this ends up being something people would like to do monthly, then I can think about starting a separate yahoogroup for it. 

Have fun!

I’ve been super busy the last several weeks designing like crazy.  I’ve got about 60 new designs in the hopper.  Many of them are about to be test knitted and I hope to be uploading them in batches beginning in several weeks.

In the meantime, I’ve been thinking about doing a knit-a-long as a way of jump starting interest in the site again and to put out the free pattern of the month for June.  I just thought it would be something different to do.  I’ll put up a few lines per day here on the blog and then have the entire pattern available for download when it’s all finished.

Any thoughts on that idea?
