Can you believe it, Issue 7 has been out in the world for three whole weeks! Since our Joy KAL kicked off on April 1, we've seen so many beautiful projects emerging on Instagram, and with new cast-on's happening all the time, we're so excited to see all the joyful FO's emerge over the coming months.
If you haven't joined in on the KAL get, don't worry, there is still plenty of time! It's going to be running until May 30, and all you need is to tag a photo of your progress with #MakingStoriesJoyKAL on Instagram. Before you can do that though, you're going to need to decide what to cast on. It's a tough one, with twelve beautiful patterns with Joy at their core, deciding which to knit first is difficult. That's why we thought we'd bring you a little Issue 7 project inspiration with today's post!
I don't know about you, but I always find it super helpful to check out other makers' projects when I'm planning my own, so today, I want to share some of the stunning projects that were created by our wonderful test knitters.
It's a simple fact that we wouldn't be here without our test knitters. They share their expertise and time to help us to get our patterns ready for publication, and are a seriously talented group of knitters. I've shared a few projects below to get the inspiration flowing!
