Our Sunday afternoon in the nearby Colorado high country is displayed via YouTube. Weather in the national park yesterday was in the low 60F temperatures, the sun was bright, the foliage brilliant in yellows, golds and rusts. Just a few blue-grey thunderclouds foretold that rain was on the horizon. (I hope you will enjoy the scenery and music as much as I did while producing this short video.)

A Knit Along with Podcaster Paula
One of my favorite podcasters, Paula, who hosts the Knitting Pipeline, is starting a knit a long (KAL) today. I'm in. Here is the Shaelyn pattern that several dozens (?) of us will be knitting simultaneously:
And here are two yarns I will be using; the main color is a madelintosh pashima in the colorway of "Manor" and the variegated color is from Farmhouse Yarns in a sock weight called "Grapes on the Vine".
The darker color will be used on the lace panels, while the "Grapes on the Vine" will be the solid stripes. With a KAL, there will be lots of people to help if any of us get pestered by the pattern details.
If this sounds fun, join us here and enjoy some bagpiper music, too.
PS: 907 people on Ravelry have knit this pattern with gorgeous results. You can view most of them here.
