Join me in my first EVER Mystery Knitalong!

This is an unsized project suited for anyone and everyone. The first clue comes out on July 11 and there will be plenty of opportunities for you to personalize your project even well before you figure out what you’re creating. Skills and Technique help will be available during the KAL; this is a majorly accessible design for knitters of all levels and I’m ready to help wherever it is needed. Our MKAL will kick off with a Zoom party at 7:30 PM, July 11 and special guest Danni Etter from Black Mountain Yarn Shop will be joining me. As my boys would say, LETS GOOOOOOOO

I don’t want to divulge everything here, but just know that this is a very accessible project for knitters of all levels and options are provided to make it more or less challenging.
