Popcorn at the Movies CAL Part 1

Here we are ready to begin the new CAL for March. I'm making a version of the shawl along with everyone else and will be sharing my wip photos over in Yarn Jugglers in FB. IT's a wonderful community of supportive yarnies who help each other out and share pics and tips all the time.

There is a paid version of the pattern, as a complete printer friendly PDF which is available to buy, a week after the first part is released, 29th March, from the shop if you just can't wait for the release schedule of the KAL.

All the info about yarns and notions are over at the main post here.

The pattern is available in both UK and US terms and this time around there is a video tutorial for making a magic circle. Note that the abbreviations list is for the entire shawl, not each individual part ;)

Sharing is Caring

Sharing is caring in everything that we do in our world of yarn. The more you share this event (and others) online, the more people visit the site and you help support me. That is how designers get noticed and it helps to grow reputation for the blogs you enjoy.

I've created some images if you want to use them, all 4 shown below, to share info about the CAL with others. Instagram, facebook and stories sized graphics are ready for you to use.

As we all work through the Popcorn at the Movies CAL I ask that you use our hashtag to share and make a great gallery of what you are working on.
