Camp Loopy

I am so excited to be knitting with my fellow campers.. at Camp Loopy! I am in Cabin 5...perfect for me..started with the Daybreak shawl..long story short didn't work out and now I am making the Scalloped Shawl from the Malabrigo Book 3. I casted on June 15th..have to have this finished by July 15...am only half way there...(slow knitter I am!) The picture on the cover of the book is the Shawl! I am using Malabrigo Silky Merino..oh what a nice yarn to work with! Both Loopy Ewe and Eat Sleep Knit sell this yarn as well as other places...I showed you the Malabrigo from Eat Sleep Knit because that is where you can see the colors I chose! I am working with right now Pradera..and will add on another color...which will be a surprise...3 skeins is all that is needed to make this shawl! I will definitely make another shawl using a solid color..love this pattern! Thank you Sherri for the Camp Loopy invite! Having fun getting to know everyone!
