Our annual Fall Sweater KAL has started! Knit or crochet a sweater for yourself or another adult.
Here are the rules:
- Dates - 9/1/2023 - 1/15/24. That’s 4 months…plenty of time to knit or crochet an adult-size sweater…or two!
- We have bundles for inspiration! Beginner sweaters are here.
- Adventurous Beginners to Advanced sweaters are here
- Crocheters! Your sweaters are here
- ANYONE can add sweaters to the bundles!
- There will be prizes - just post a picture of your lovely finished sweater in our FOs thread.
- Do you have some sweaters in progress? WIPs count as long as the sweater is less than 50% done on September 1st. Less than 50% done is your call. We don’t have to “approve” your project.
- It must be an adult-sized sweater, and it must have sleeves. Short sleeves are fine.
You must be a member of our Ravelry group to win a prize.
