Sock Sprint
You'll want to be ready for this one! Two weeks, one pair of socks! Can we do it?
Summertime is the season for socks! A smaller project, perfect knitting for the sweltering, on-the-go days!
The challenge is to knit any pair of socks in two weeks. For some it's easy and for some it's a real stretch. Either way, you're in great company and you'll be in the running for a prize!
We have many sock yarns ready and of course there's the 2025 TWT Sock Bag coming soon and shipping to you in perfect time to begin the Sock Sprint!
Sign Ups will be open soon!

Jennifer Steingass KAL
A lovely 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 begins at the beginning of January with lots of discussions and support happening in Ravelry.
Gift Make-Along
'Tis the season for making and gifting! Join in this loose Make-Along and get ready to inspire and be inspired for knitting and making gifts from the heart.
With this Make-Along, you can knit one gift or many! Knit gifts for all of your loved ones or for yourself - the ultimate knit-worthy person!
Start knitting and making as soon as you sign up! There's no official end date, but the prize winner will be drawn from the signups on November 30th.
