Inside Number 23 Harry Potter KAL
The Knitting Broomstick Harry Potter KAL
Running over in the Mrs B Podcast Ravelry Group - here
This is the first knit along for the podcast!! To celebrate Queen Elizabeth II’s 90th birthday we are having a British themed “Keep Calm and KAL”!
The KAL will run from April the 21st (her actual birthday) to June the 14th (her official birthday). The chatter thread will be open from today, but no projects started before April the 21st can be counted.
The guidelines are as follows:
- Knit or crochet something British!
- You can use British fibre, yarn dyed by a British dyer, a design by a British designer, or a combination of all three!
- There will be a prize for the chatter thread, and another for the FO thread.
- Feel free to double/triple dip etc. with other KALs.
- Use the #keepcalmKAL on instagram so that we can all see your lovely projects!
Have a wonderful day! Mrs B x x
