Welcome to Tea Time!

Hi {!name_fix} - We're knitting Tea-time Serviette for this month's KAL. If you have not already joined in this knit-and-learn-along, we'd love to have you.

This month's KAL features petit scalloped edging, long tail beaded cast on (beading is optional), circular knitting outside-in to form a square, and cold-brew tea dyeing for vintage effects (optional). You can go to the April KAL page for more information and to get the pattern with special KAL discount offers.

Here are direct links to the most recent KAL article posts, or just go to the KnitHeartStrings.com site to see there:
> Edging Options for beads or not; petit scallop or not
> Judy's Straw Trick for getting beads to jump on your beading needle
> Long Tail Beaded Cast On for a picot effect along the border
> Petit Scallop Edging photo tutorial
Remember that even if you are not a paid member or have not purchased this month's KAL pattern (discount available for members), you can still take advantage of these member-exclusive KAL article posts for free.
