This is such a fun knitalong, this was the second year I've participated but I can hardly wait for next year! It's a real challenge, but so much fun and you really get an idea what you can create in two months if you put your energy to it. I mean - four shawl, pair of socks, a shrug PLUS all the other things! I'm inclined to say: well done me!
