After a few short weeks, we’ve reached the end of our Black Swan KAL, and we’ve got a lot of FOs to show off!

Michelle’s Black Swan!

Lisa’s Black Swan!

Jamie’s Black Swan

Jillian’s Black Swan

Sally’s Black Swan

Elsha’s Black Swan!

And even though we don’t qualify to win prizes, Black Swan designer Tara Shade has been knitting up a few more for holiday gifts, including this cute one!

One of Tara’s Black Swans!

And I finished mine, too! We’ve been celebrating the bathroom photo shoot with this KAL, so I had to join in!

My Black Swan!

Congrats to those who finished! It’s been really fun to see everyone’s incarnations of Black Swan.

And now for prizes!

Holla Knits 2013 Subscription: Jillian!

WORK+SHELTER Hand Warmers knitting pattern and a skein of Periwinkle Sheep Merino Sport: Sally!

Allyson Dykhuizen knitting pattern of your choice: Jamie!

Fun handmade holiday quilted hot pads: Michelle!

I’ll be in touch with all of the winners on Ravelry. A little late to the party? Keep sharing your pics! I’ll do another FO pic round up, so there can still be finished object glory for all.

It’s the last week of our Black Swan KAL, though the FOs have already started rolling in! But we’ll save those for next week.

So while it doesn’t look like there is too much progress since there are only 4 progress pics, next week’s FO shots are mounting and I can’t wait to show them off!

This Week’s Black Swan Goal: Finish! You are seaming the front and back together at the shoulders, picking up stitches around the neckline and working the collar. Then you are weaving in your ends, seaming the bottoms together for armholes, and voila! Finished Black Swan!

Remember: Post a pic of your finished Black Swan on our Ravelry FO forum sometime in the next week to qualify for our KAL prizes! All finished Black Swans posted there or emailed to me at Allyson@HollaKnits.com before Wednesday December 12th qualify.

Good luck and happy knitting!
