Finished! The #PsychedelicaKAL shawl, everything except weaving in a few ends and a light blocking. Yay! #FallFinishAlong got me there - thank you @ConsumableJoy and @LaVisch and the Mastodon knitting community for your support and help! This one goes on the ever☆growing blocking pile. 🧶

Knitterati ~ Not sure about this...

Trying 3 stripes of mustard in coral at start of final solid section. There will be 2x more depth in solid coral to follow + scalloped garter edge.

It feels too dense or yellow something? Maybe will read better when larger coral-only segment is done? Add some white to visually connect it better to upper two sections? Frog?

Don't know. Would love feedback!

Okey dokey, Knitterati ~ Another tweak to Susanne's fun design, #PsychedelicaKAL...

Kept to her striped approach through crazy section but changed color from coral to mustard. Then, back to coral for final solid portion, throwing in some mustard stripes.

Enjoying how these colors look side by side, w/out white. Also liking weight of denser fabric at base of shawl - feels quite stabilizing to a slinky knit. Fun!

101 grams now 79 grams of coral after 6 rows equals 3.6 grams per row, 7.2 per back-forth stripe so if I do 4 stripes of coral between 5 stripes of mustard 7.2 times 8 or 4 rows equals 28.8 grams leaving 50.2 grams which would net out 6.9 2-row stripes including garter border. Maybe. IDK!

Gosh, rusty at math! Every time I get to end of knitter math I have a brain seize-up, for reals. Lordy.

In home stretch, Knitterati! Switched things up:

🧶 2nd part DK mustard bamboo-linen, lace white linen.

🧶 Wound 2nd skein coral Linea Pura Unico for 3rd/final section.

🧶 Weighed on 'drug scale,' did knitter math. Want final section bigger than mustard section.

🧶 Left over mustard will be 4-5 stripes added to solid coral - wondering how those 2 will play together, side by side?

The crazy section of #PsychedelicaKAL now... I'm enchanted with what is emerging. It 'slithers' through the hands, with hypnotic drape and movement. Cool and airy to the touch.

Stretched out here to see the pattern - Linen and bamboo in mixed weights of DK and lace. Eight more rows, then it's on to the wide stockinette scalloped border. Wonder how wide it is now?

Wowie zowie my Knitterati friends, look what the first 8 rows of crazy section of #PsychedelicaKAL did - so visually interesting IMHO! Will knit next chunk of pattern and post again. What do y'all think?

It's been days of reorg after being in hospital 34 of last 50 days. That was a completely unexpected detour and backslide. I always forget that healing is not a straight line. Ever. It's all good!

Well crap, my Knitterati friends... I forgot. Was gonna make crazy section of #PsychedelicaKAL in solid mustard yellow. But then...

Stuff happened & was distressed, fatigued, went deep into solace of knit & purl. Then! I forgot, made 1st 2 rows of crazy section in white. So...

Un-knit? Keep going, hope eye won't pick up flaw at transition? Stick with mustard and white stripes? I'd love advice!

I am declaring a pre-KAL success... Only knit four more rows on #PsychedelicaKAL, but laid this puppy out good and flat for a better sense of size.

Today I plan to use up coral ball #1, and tomorrow (maybe) I get discharged back to the rehab, where I can make a ball and start the crazy section with the mustard one. Oh the thrill!

#PsychedelicaKAL is growing! It is still so airy, lightweight, drapey. I'm loving where this is going.

It should come out at about 80"-100" across, which is my favorite size because it's big, and I'm big, and it doesn't look like a dumb-ass kerchief dropped over my upper shoulders. It is most def sturdy. And the crazy section w color change plus stockinette border is going to provide balast needed. Enjoying this knit.

Hello Knitterati ~ Been AWOL bc am in hospital, 3rd time. Infection not gone, took 24 hours to flare, bad. This stuff is scary. MASSIVE antibiotics.

Just got pain meds after 8+ hour wait. In excruciating pain but relief soon. Grateful 2b alive.

#PsychedelicaKAL aka my emotional comfort shawl aka my bamboo-linen cooling shawl is with me, and I've picked up speed. Soon, mustard skein comes in for crazy part. Excited!

This stitch is turning out so interesting on the #PsychedelicaKAL...

The coral is bamboo-linen in DK weight. The white is 100% lace weight linen. It's creating this lovely open, airy fabric, perfect for a "cooling shawl." Here are shots, back and front. A happy surprise, this one!

Taking a break from knitting because friend is postponing their travel so I'm going to stress my fingers by resuming spinning. This colourway is from World of Wool's zodiac series. Can't even be mad this is mine... I really do like these colours 😅👀👀👀 #HandSpunYarn #YarnSpinning #TurkishSpindle #knitting #crochet #knitstodon
