April 2020

Posted on by Erin Pirro

This is a Crazy Time.

If you’re stuck at home, doing your part to flatten the curve, you’re going to need productive things to do or your screen time is going to jump by 5,000%!  Join us for “One Project a Week” to get us through this together.

What does that mean?

First, join our knit along group.  You’ll be glad you did.  Every month we tackle a new project to learn or practice techniques that build our knitting toolbox.  From beginner to expert, you’ll find great camaraderie with fellow knitters working on the same project at the same time.  And did I mention our goal is LEARNING, not speed?  It’s a journey instead of a race.

Second, here’s the projects we’ll be working on.  You can get them individually, or grab the bundle and SAVE.


Baby Hat and Booties
Casts on April 3
Size 4 DPNs (or single-pointed needles if you knit the hat flat)
Use stash yarn or get a skein of 3-strand Morehouse Merino.
