~FO KAL for January 

~another Myla's Knit Corner KAL Through January 2019

   for this one we will be working the Wonder shawl. It will be a 3 month KAL, unless you believe it needs to be long. And Myla is helping us to save money by giving us a discount on the pattern if you use the code KIM at checkout. She is also going to donate one of her patterns to the first person chosen at the end of the KAL. Let's support this great designer and share our love. BTW this can also count as a FO KAL and Knitting for others (if it is made for someone else).
