I'm so excited to share the Spring 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 main design winners and the Greatest Hits bonuses. Each has its own step-by-step video tutorial class, taught by me, something I've learned is vital to your success and other makers. The classes are hosted within our Knit Collage App and there for you forever, whenever you need them!

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! To stay in the loop and be the first to know all the knitalong details, sign up here. 

Option 1 ~ Mixtape Sweater by Susan Hislop and Amy Small

Knit in Mixtape Yarn

The Mixtape sweater uses our newest Knit Collage yarn with a multi texture, self-striping effect. There are two sleeve options (long sleeve and sleeveless) and two neckline options (scoop neck and mock turtleneck) for ultimate customization. This design is super beginner friendly and would make a great first sweater project.

Option  2 ~ Flow State Cardi by Sue Hislop and Amy Small

Knit in Spun Cloud Light and a Needle Felting Kit (new for spring!)

This simple cropped raglan cardi is all about the embellishments. It's a blank canvas to explore needle felting and let your creativity run wild by painting with our favorite medium—wool! The pattern includes guidance for these fun, springy floral motifs and (as always) an open invitation to do YOU and let your imagination take over.

Option 3 ~ Stained Glass Shawl by Cheryl Kubat

Crocheted in Serenity and Mixtape 

In this unique shawl design, the vibrant hues of Mixtape yarn are crocheted into bold motifs. Each section is carefully outlined in a solid color to mimic the intricate beauty of stained glass windows, giving the shawl a stunning, almost architectural quality.

Option 4 ~ The Monet Cardi by Ksenia Naidyon

Knit in Waterfall

Dancing reflections on water, sunlight trapped between the tree branches, soft evening shadows in the garden—the magic of Monet's paintings are mirrored in the beauty of Waterfall yarn. The Monet cardi was dreamed up as a special layer for those summer days when just a little bit more warmth is needed. This easy to wear piece is a perfect companion for long walks in the meadows, picnics at the seaside, and summer nights by the campfire.

And... The KAL Greatest Hits Bonus Design Winners!!

Bonus Option  1 ~ Everyday Day Cardi by Laurel Gervitz

Knit in Spun Cloud with optional Wildflower embroidery

The Everyday Yay Cardi is your go to cardi to wear over just about everything in your closet! Knit from the top down with a raglan construction, it's simple to knit and stunning to wear. This pattern comes with two options - add your own cross stitch embroidery or just leave it blank and go solid. 

Bonus Option 2 ~ Lotus Sweater by Julia Norris

Knit in Spun Cloud Light and Wildflower yarn

The Lotus Sweater is a timeless boat neck construction featuring a high-low hem that accentuates the waistline in the front while offering more coverage in the back—the perfect fit for leggings or Bermuda shorts. The statement front panel features an intarsia column of colorful “Lotus Stitches” flanked by two bands of “Wheat Stitches” that offer texture and interest to this otherwise classic, coastal silhouette. Light, airy and breathable, this pullover is the perfect companion for evening walks on the beach and outdoor dining in a light summer breeze.

Option 3  ~ Spring Fling Cardi by Laurel Gervitz

Knit in Spun Cloud and Wildflower Mini Skeins

The Spring Fling Cardi pattern mixes stripes and lace into a beautifully unique design! You'll start at the top neck and knit down, striping in our fun mini skein kits as you go. After the bust, we switch to a simple scalloped lace pattern. The pattern has two sleeve options for you to choose from: short sleeve, as shown here, and 3/4 flared sleeves. This is a fun pattern to try if lace has intimidated you in the past and the perfect Spring piece to add to your hand knit wardrobe.

Option 4 ~ Feeling Groovy Side Tie Vest by Jen Geigley

Knit in Spun Cloud with optional Mini Skein Sampler Kit

Conquer "shoulder season" with the ultimate layering piece. This super chic side-tie vest has a modern, cropped fit but a timeless aesthetic. Our super bulky Spun Cloud yarn makes this a quick, warm knit but the open sides keep this a very breathable option for spring. Comes in both a solid and multi-yarn option.

That's all the winners! I hope you're as excited about them as I am!! Next week I'll share more about how our KALs work in a three part video series so stay tuned for that. To be the first to know about the KAL, sign up for updates here. If your favorite design didn't make it, not to fret, it will be released sometime in 2025!
