I'm so excited to share the Fall Knitalong design winners with you today - chosen by you by popular vote!  I'm so thrilled about these designs and cannot wait to see them come to life. So without further ado - here are the four winners.This knitalong we are doing fewer designs, however each design will come with it's own video tutorial class, something I've learned is vital to your success and other makers. Doing fewer designs will allow us to go deeper on each one and really focus! 

 

Next week I'll kick off my intro video series where you'll get to learn more about our knitalongs and what makes this experience so powerful. I'd love to hear what style sparks your interest in the comments below. If you have any questions, please ask away!  Keep in mind that all you really need to have to join in is a desire and openness to learn something new. We will teach you the rest in our online classes that are yours forever, including basic knit and crochet classes where we start from zero.
