I became interested Moogly, which is run by blogger, teacher and designer Tamara Kelly, through hearing all about her on the Yarn Thing podcast. Not long after that, I checked out her blog and found a gorgeous, free crochet pattern that I really wanted to make!
It's called the Sunset Shawlette.
I actually taught some students how to make the shawlette in a class I taught at Sheep Thrills Yarn Store in Lauderhill, FL. The stitch pattern is really compelling and it's nice because even though you start with a really long chain, the pattern decreases as you go so you can feel the progress you're making! Link directly to Moogly's free pattern here.
Since I recently started my own newsletter, I signed up for Moogly's newsletter as well. It is so exciting! She shares pictures of projects that people have made with her patterns.
Since I had made the beautiful shawlette with her pattern, I decided to submit the photos to her newsletter. She's so sweet! She wrote back the next day and said "It's gorgeous Caissa :D I'll be sure to email you before it goes out in the newsletter!"
{Here's a screen shot of it!}
{Thank you, Tamara!}
Wow! I was really excited to hear that Tamara Kelly would be sharing my work! So I went ahead and wrote up this mid-week post to let my readers know and also to welcome any Moogly fans who might stop by!
