A Call to all Betties, Near and Far!

Greetings Knit along Betties!
I've set up this site not knowing a thing about how to or what to do with a blog. I've been enjoying reading all of your blogs and hope we can have fun together here and I can learn how to have a superblogisimo!
We've been planning to start a Lace Knit-A-Long based on the Branching Out Scarf from Knitty.

So, since I'm not a rule maker by nature, here's the tough part!
The guidelines.
Send in your ideas for when the KAL will start, how long it will last, ideas for future KALs, and anything else you feel like talking about.
