<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">I thought of another knit-along possibility. I know a simple colorwork technique that comes out looking very nice. I have a pattern for a cowl using
it. Its a nice project, and doesnt take a long time to finish.</span></p>

<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Hi Henry.</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Ive been thinking for a while it might be fun to do some kind of knit or crochet-along, but Im not sure what kind of project would let the biggest number
of people join in.</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">We did knit-alongs at my local yarn store until sadly it closed. It was fun. It was a chance to learn some techniques and share the journey with other
people. As I recall, we made a complicated shawl that taught me a lot of new techniques, an interesting cardigan, and a t-shirt top that proved very popular.</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">I think the tee might be a good group project. Its got a nice eyelet detail along the seams, but is actually seamless, knitted top-down, and you get
a nice top at the end.</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Or we could make a crochet throw, like the one Becky just shared.</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Or we could do something completely different.</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">What do people think? Would we like to do this? What should we make?</span></p>

<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Im thinking Id like to make a throw using crochet. I dont mind some color changes, but Im more interested in texture. Shells, or flowers, something
like that.</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">Can anyone recommend a pattern like that?</span></p>
<p style="margin: 0in; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-size: 11pt;">I see lots of afghan books on BlindMice, but I dont know if theyre what I want or not. And the ones I find on LionBrandYarn are based on color, not
interesting textures.</span></p>
