January 1, 2019 KAL:   Challenge

Happy New Year, from Rosie!

 Hope everyone is having a great start to their New *Knitting* Year!

For this year, I'm taking some time  away - not away from knitting!  - but away from designing and creative work
 - so for the Challenge KAL's, I will be sending along some new patterns from online sites ~

The  one I chose for this month is called "Flags" -

My KAL Challenge Cloth:

 ~ it is a simple stitch, but the challenge to you is to see that it is also offered as the beginning of a 52- square-blocks knit!

Included with this pattern is a chart, if you want to learn [a good challenge for a new year!] or already like to knit from a chart and not a pattern.

At this site, a different pattern will be published every WEEK! so if you decide to take it on, you will have some knitting to do every week, which would be perfect for those of you who knit fast and can't wait til our knitalong comes up the next month!

Enjoy this pattern, and take a look at her site - she has a number of other free patterns!
