I was gifted an electronic version of the 
Unofficial Harry Potter Knits magazine in January (
thanks babe) and have been waiting for the right moment and pattern to start knitting. Following 
@socalmeaghan and 
@ghostfaceknitter on Instagram provided just the right amount of incentive to start knitting the Heliopath Vest: 
They both provide all the details in their respective blogs 
The Unapologetic Knitter and 
GhostFaceKnitter. Not only 
is there a prize are there 
four prizes, these lovely ladies have literally broken down the daunting process into weekly goals. I made a nifty little 
Google Calender to keep track: 
 
The KAL (
knit along) started today and even though I should have started knitting the swatch to check the gauge, I didn't exactly get the chance to put needle to yarn. I did, however, brave the rain to visit 
Unwind for my yarn, a new needle and a glorious scoop of buttons (
plus 8 perfect for this project).

That sounds exciting! I too have embarked on a KAL in March with Diane from the Knitabulls Podcast, the Stitch surfers socks. I cast on yesterday and this is gong to be fun!! Looking forward to see your progress, your yarn is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteNICE!!!! This is only my second KAL... both have been "Harry Potter" themed. :) Shows where my knitting priorities are.
DeleteThis is a fabulous post! I'm so glad you're enjoying the process of our KAL. I look forward to seeing your progress.
ReplyDeleteYou're too sweet Meaghan! My updates won't be weekly, but I'll definitely post my progress. :)
