Jennifer Steingass KAL

What a fun knit-along this was! A group of Thistlers made this informal KAL in Ravelry because they were all fans of Jennifer Steingass (@knit.love.wool). To show their love for Jennifer's patterns, they chose to knit one of her many lovely designs in a yarn of their choice. We love when Thistlers take initiative and make their own fun within the community.

This knit-along ran at the beginning of January with lots of discussions and support happening in Ravelry.

TWT Sweater KAL

Knit or crochet any Adult Sweater pattern in any weight yarn. The sweater must be knit out of at least 80% of yarn which was purchased from The Woolly Thistle at any point in time. To be inclusive and to recognize the work that goes into colorwork vests, we will also allow adult-sized color work vests in this KAL. All other wip’s should have sleeves.

This 7 week KAL ran from August 25th and ends on October 13th.
