make good stashdown: Welcome to our first annual Stashdown KAL. This year's stashbusting project will be Stephen West's Penguono (https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/penguono). Today we're talking about some of the technical aspects of pattern (size, gauge, choosing yarns, etc.) and we hope that you'll knit a Penguono with us! Details: * Cast-On January 4th (or whenever... this is pretty laid back!) * Post photos of your Penguono progress on Instagram and use the tags #makegoodstashdown and #makegoodpenguono * Each tagged photo will count as one entry. You may enter as many times as you'd like! * You do not need to be finished with your Penguono to be eligible to to win, but you do need to follow @makegoodpod (https://www.instagram.com/scratchsupplyco/) * On February 1st we'll randomly select one of you to win $150 gift card to Scratch (https://www.scratchsupplyco.com/)!
