8-Bit MKAL

 I have been doing the 8-MKAL sweater by Megan-Anne Llama on Ravelry and it is so much fun! Here are my progress pictures:

The swatch, a cup cozy.

Clues 1-4, the sleeves

Clues 5-6, starting the body

The patterns are free during the MKAL, and a new pattern is released each week. Clue 7 came out yesterday. Normally, I do not participate in these. I am horrible at keeping up with them, but this one is changing so much it is keeping my attention. I am excited to see the finished sweater.
