Our Annual Colorwork Accessories Knit-Along is just around the corner!
We invite you to join us from February 17th to March 18th as we knit all-over colorwork accessories. It's not too early to start planning your projects! To be eligible for prizes, choose any pattern with all-over colorwork and use mostly (80% or so) yarn from The Woolly Thistle. We have lots of fabulous kits in the shop already, and we'll be releasing a few more as the KAL approaches! Sign up is free and open now!
Begins January 1 with no set end date
Knit any of Jennifer Steingass (@knit.love.wool) patterns in any yarn. A group of Ravelry members have teamed up to start this informal KAL based around their love of Jennifer Steingass’s patterns.
How to join: The main thread of discussion for this KAL is in our Ravelry group. If participating on Facebook or Instagram, feel free to share there using the hashtag #thewoollythistle so we can see what you’re working on!
Prize: The Woolly Thistle will be giving out a prize or two to a random participant during the KAL. To be eligible, post in the Ravelry discussion thread, or if not on Ravelry then send us an email with a picture of what you’re working on (doesn’t need to be finished).

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 ended on October 7th. Sign up for the TWT Sweater Kal is now closed.
Our next Knit-along is coming up soon! Save the date and join us July15-28 as we knit (or attempt to knit!) a pair of socks in two weeks. All are invited! Use any yarn and any pattern. Maybe you'll join us knitting one of the sock yarns from this year's Sock Bag?
This is a Free KAL with no formal signup. Join us in our Facebook and Ravelry groups, and be sure to use the hashtag #2022TWTSockSprint so everyone can see your sock knitting!
