KNIT ALONGS
Knit alongs are a really fun way to experience the community aspect of knitting. Several times a year, Westknits and Stephen & Penelope host events where knitters from around the world are invited to join in and knit something together!
Below you will find more information about each of our three annual KALs.
YAL 2021: BRIGHTS AND JEWELS
The Westknits Yarn A Long (or YAL) is a yearly knit-along and yarn club hosted by Stephen & Penelope. When you purchase the Yarn A Long, you will receive three individual shipments, one per month in May, June and July. Each shipment includes exclusive hand-dyed yarn, an exclusive Westknits pattern, and a knitting-related gift. The first shipment includes a Westknits project bag and the last shipment also includes an embroidered achievement badge.
Hiberknitalong
The Westknits Hiberknitalong is our annual winter KAL that begins in December. The Hiberknitalong is focused on relaxing and cozy knitting projects as we knit together into the new year. We announce Hiberknitalong details toward the end of November and early December.
Westknits Mystery Knit Along
The Westknits Mystery Shawl Knit along (MKAL) occurs each fall. Sign ups and kits launch in September as we collect colors to knit a surprise shawl pattern. We knit together throughout the month of October and Westknits releases a section of the pattern each week until the final design is revealed. The Mystery Shawl is a complete surprise, so when you sign up you just know what types of yarn you need and then Westknits entertains you with a beautiful showstopping shawl.
