Daisy Pillow Kit

Welcome to the Fall 2025 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! The Fall 2025 knitalong will be hosted entirely on our app, which means everything is available in one, easy to navigate space. If you have yarn or want to source yarn locally, you can join the knitalong with the virtual experience here!  Watch the videos below to learn what sets them apart in detail.
