MORE SUMMER KNITTING KNIT ALONG ENTRIES

 Continuing posting the entries to my Summer Vacation/Travel Knit Along in Ravelry, here are more entries as they appeared in the gallery on Ravery. Each photo contains two entries and as much as possible I've tried to include the inspiration and photos provided in the gallery as a background for each creation. Everyone posted a little differently.

Be sure to click to the next page to see more entries.

Below at the top of the first photo is by aurobee based in a very free-range spirit on Knit A Beach followed by COkntr's wrap based on a Florida sunset (almost molten with color)

And, below YarnPlenty's 'Searching for terracotta' inspired by a trip to Mexico:

And below again, at the top, Bunmomamy's Tour de France Capelet in buttery hes keeping company with Nasheen's abalone capelet.

Below, top: Audrie takes the Yellow  Brick Road in her "Road to Oz/Poppy Field Forever' Wrap while below that Nanilee2 presents her Headlands Bolero (based on my Sunset Bolero pattern).

And Desertwind at the top of the photo models her Mt. Ranier Wrap while Rosiandsuz presents MacKerricher Weather wrap.

And CRA unfurls her Monaco Wrap while below Knitting4therapy shows  her entry:

And below Fiberdoodle's SeaBreeze shares the stage with Kalaiton's Knit A Beach wrap (inspired by the Knit A Beach Evocative guide)

And from Spain Rosalias models her Gaudi wrap celebrating the master of artful design's based on Gaudi Parc while below Peggy models another one of her summery little shawlette with matching pin

And BizzieLizzie presents her innovative a witty take on a provincial fountain (yes, that's a knitted fountain!) while below April2929 interprets Peru in mossy stony hues in her Woven Woods vest.

And Teerling takes us to the Fundy Coast with her wallhanging while below PurpleClaire interprets Perito Merino glacier in stitches

And a witty take on a palm tree (wih a whole story involving a squirrel and coconuts) imerged from HOllySue's needles while Puddlejumper, though not participating in the contest, offered her Aruba in the spirit of the adventure.

And Bizzie Lizzie of the fountain fame channels high drama in herSunset over Herault, France, cardigan above Passiontocreate's Purple Sunset Jacket.

And PurpleClaire, inspired by Morocco, went festive in this shrug while below Rosieandsuz makes an encore (by mistake)

 Above, Susan's 'Susan was a Biker Road-trip Wrap' inspired by road trips through the mountains on biking trips based her design loosely on  myFeather&FAn Organic wrap. At the bottom of the photo, another entry is Faith Welsh's 'Enchanted Forest Kimono', my Winter Forest Kmono design transformed by Faith's imagination.

Here is Mary's 'The Beach' wall hanging inspired by Mary's favorite English beaches and an exploration of color and texture. Her compsnion in the photo is Melba's 'Tuscan Fantasy Travel Vest'vwhich began as a Tuscan Rose Shawl design and went traveing into it's own lovely vest shape in true free-range style.

And here at the top of the third photo box is Colleen's 'Forest Shawl', a truly evocative leafy concoction totally of her own design suitable for wood nymphs (and people like me) and, below, with Peggy's  'Mexican Tile Shawlette' a free-range shoulder-gracer inspired by tiles she spied in a cafe in San Diego and finished with a pin she made.

From the entry 'WRAPUANA!'. Absolutely luscious!!!
