Welcome to the Fall 2024 Knitalong! Our knitalongs are a wonderful way to learn and grow in new ways. We accomplish this through in depth video classes that match the exact pattern you're working on, 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!
For the first time ever, well be hosting this KAL on our brand new app so you’ll have the opportunity to become a founding member. This is going to be a complete game changer for the user experience as everything will be available in one, easy to navigate space. The app will not be open to the public until 2025!

The Walking on Sunshine Sweater is a raglan, crop pullover with stylish bell sleeves. Knit in our Daisy Chain yarn, it’s constructed from the top down making it easy to customize. The sleeves flare at the wrist in contrast with the fitted upper arm. Walking on Sunshine is a versatile and trendy sweater that is both comfortable and fashionable, perfect for a modern wardrobe. What’s not to love about all those daisies? They’ll bring a smile to your face and make you feel like you’re Walking on Sunshine!
