We are kicking off our first ever Colorwork KAL on Saturday, 1/11/20 at 10:00. You may select any colorwork pattern you choose, be it a hat, cowl, or sweater. It just depends on how adventurous you're feeling. We are hosting a FB group - KnitWorks Yarn Colorwork KAL - where you can share you progress and where we'll post video help for those who need it. Even if you can't come to the shop to "knit along" with us, you can knit with us on FB. We might even do a live post!
This is Jennifer Steingass's new pattern Hinterland, available on Ravelry.
