It's cables and brioche for Vivian today! She's working on a cabled cardigan, a brioche hat and finished a cabled hat and a brioche shawl. Phew! And Alyson's all cardigans: her nearly finished South Shore cardigan, and Vivian's cabled cardi is actually for Alyson. Plus it's time to start planning your Archive KCAL projects.

Congrats to the Moorit Makealong prize winner, Jbryanttoo! In other MAL news, Alyson finished her Kishie vest... ok so maybe it was a wee bit past the MAL end date. But at least that's an FO in the 2024 bank for Alyson to make up for the fact that she only finished 4 projects in 2023. Vivian on the other hand completed a whopping 24 projects last year!

You wouldn't know it from ALL the projects Vivian has been beavering away on, but she does have one cabled project to show off: her Folklore cardi! Plus a bit of color work in the form of both a WIP and an FO. Alyson meanwhile is trundling along with her not so sage Sage shrug.
