I am not much of a joiner. Or rather, I like to do my knitting alone so no one can know what terrible TV I watch while crafting. But lately I've been trying to make my knitting a more social activity. I've started going to a weekly knitting group hosted by the Emory law librarians.* I try to teach other people to knit when they let me.
And now I am going to do this knit along with Canadian Living Craft Blog.
No, I don't usually read Canadian Living. I just happen to really like the pattern they are making and have a sweater's worth of purple Cascade 220 stuffed under my bed just screaming for a purpose.
Joining a knit-along will help me with any trouble I run into and will hopefully give me the motivation I need to get it done. They've given themselves six weeks to do it. A sweater in six weeks? I can do that, right?**

The pattern is the Classic Raglan Pull-Over by Jane Richmond. Doesn't it look like a favorite sweater just waiting to happen? |
