Adventures in Lace Knit Along: Got Ribs, No Lace...Yet!

My priorities are straight. After making sure we had enough to eat for the week with my usual Monday trip to the grocery store, I casted on  98 stitches to begin my lace knit along project. This is the beginning of my Ribbed Lace Bolero.

I'm in the middle of knitting 3 inches of ribbing, before I hit the lace. The gauge is working out. I am notorious for not doing tension swatches!

I'm really looking forward to seeing how the other KAL knitters are coming along with their lace projects.

Happy Casting On!

Cast On!: Lace Knit Along Set to Start Tomorrow

Tomorrow, I cast on my ribbed lace bolero for the beginning of the knit along. I'm nervous about all of the yarn overs and remembering when to knit into the back or front of the stitch.

I've never been this anxious about knitting! I guess it's that'll I'll be sharing my progress on my blog, on Flickr and Ravelry.

In celebration of the KAL, our host Kate at Lazy Kate Creates is giving away two skeins of this lovely Misti Alpaca Lace 2 ply.

Happy KAL!
