Welcome to the Spring 2026 Knitalong! Our knitalongs are a wonderful way to learn and grow in new ways. We accomplish this through video tutorials through the trickiest techniques of each pattern, around the clock support from our expert coaches, and accountability and connection from other creativity loving makers. It's about learning new things, diving deep into our most creative selves and of course, having a lot of fun along the way too!
The Spring 2026 knitalong will be hosted entirely on our app, which means everything is available in one, easy to navigate space.

Over the course of the last 13 years, we've created our own little cottage industry within the Indian economy where 16 Indian women create our yarns! There’s just so much that goes into each and every skein and none of it would be possible without this team, right here, making it all happen. One of my favorite things about being there is that anything feels possible. Read more on the blog: India Team + Trip Recap.
