    So impressed by everyone’s knitting and glad to be able to be back in the KAL. Tendonitis is a bother. You’ve inspired me to consider how to use some of my existing stash to do a Nightshift too. I’ve never knit a shawl before. A little intimidated, but even just a row a day will see something made in a couple of years… although I get tendonitis because I cannot stop at just a row a day. 😄

      I'm glad you can be back in the KAL!
      I'm sorry about your tendinitis, but please take care of your hands!
      Stash diving for the night shift is really fun!!
      And I don't think you should be intimidated by a shawl. This one is pretty easy! Not too many increases to keep track of!

    I’m so excited my shawl won this month. I think the hand spun really shines in mosaic knitting, the nightshift shawl looks great!

    Again, you have inspired me with a pattern. I have started a Nightshift with some yarn leftovers. I love it so far!

    Kristin, I think you are amazing. You have gone all in with your spinning, and now you are actually using it! I really like how the colors are knitting up for the Night Shift Shawl. I really like the KAL. I came close to finishing something using stash. I will definitely have entries for July. Happy 4th🇺🇲

    I absolutely love your Nightshift, Kristen! It definitely makes me want to find some yarn to make my own (after abandoning the last attempt). Your slideshow is such a treat at the beginning of the month, and those stats!

    Oh, hey! I was at the Estes Park Wool Market. Did you get to do any of the workshops? Your hand spun shawl looks gorgeous! Since we've dropped from the 90s to the 60s, you can wear your shawl!You're brave knitting dark socks during a movie.....I wouldn't be able to do that 😊

      I didn't go to any workshops this year at Estes, but I am hoping I might be able to next year!
