Launching 1st October, the Knit for the Girls 2026 ‘Down Under’ Pattern Collection brings together some of our beloved Australian knitwear designers and hand-dyers, in support of the Knit for the Girls breast cancer research fundraiser.

Discover six brand-new accessory patterns which have been designed in exclusive, pink-inspired colourways by some of our favourite ‘down under’ indie dyers. Knit or crochet along with us this October and join us for a virtual ‘Knit & Zoom for the Girls’ event to be held Sunday, 25th October at 1pm AEDT. Stay tuned for more details on that soon.

During October 2026, 20% of pattern sales from the Knit for the Girls 2026 ‘Down Under’ Pattern Collection will be donated to the official Knit for the Girls fundraiser for the National Breast Cancer Foundation Australia, supporting breast cancer research.

The Susan Cowl is part of the Thread & Maple, Grocery Girls
and Louie and Lola annual Aussie breast cancer fundraiser ‘Knit for the Girls’, in support of the Australian National Breast Cancer Foundation to be held from 24th -31st October 2026.

20% of the pattern sales made during October 2026 will be added to the grand total.

The Sunpop granny Square pattern used in the Susan Cowl is from my book Granny Square Garden.
