Experienced knitter, newbie KALer

Postby Carla » Fri Jan 06, 2012 6:50 pm

So I have read here that this is an ok project for beginners. Will it be interesting enough to hold an advanced knitter's interest? This will be my first KAL, and my first knit afghan. I have always crocheted afghans and knitted smaller projects. But I don't want to start on the KAL and get bored with it. :huh:

I am an experienced knitter, and the project looks very interesting.
I'm sure you will be very pleased with the finished product.

Plus, we can all watch your work, and be amazed! :notworthy:

Has the 2010 KAL Blanket been organized into a PDF file? I saw the crochet file, but I'd like to do the knit version.

The Mystery KAL blanket was done in 2009.

I'm also an experienced knitter, but a newbie KALer ... and, like DHKC, I get bored with big projects. For me, it's all about socks & hats & baby stuffs that go pretty quickly. ... so is the 2009 Mystery KAL blanket the same one that will be done this time?
Thanks!
