It's almost 4 Day KAL time and we are knitting along with Marie Greene and her team at Olive Knits! Join us for her 9th Annual 4-Day Sweater KAL!
Cast on is July 4th, so now is the time to start thinking about your yarn! Our sample is knit with Tillie (love!) and we also recommend Remix Light (another wool-free option) and Simplicity from Hikoo. This tee style top can also be knit with two strands of fingering weight yarn held together. Pattern pre-orders began May 23 on Ravelry or oliveknits.com. The full pattern will arrive in your inbox on July 4th in your Ravelry or Olive Knits library.
We have Zoom invitations for our knitters! Marie will discuss yarn and color ideas on Zoom on June 5th at 7:00 PM. Special orders and yarn help available! Come to our OPEN HOUSE on June 7 for community fun!

Remember: we knit for fun! The real challenge of the 4 Day KAL is to make it to the finish line faster than you thought you could (whatever that is for you), and to enjoy the journey.
Marie says, 'This is a positive space for encouragement, high fives, and kudos. Remember to bring your best self and others will do the same. If you're frustrated with your progress, take a deep breath. Do a little dance. Take a break and come back with fresh eyes. Remember: it's only knitting. We're all in this together!'
Thank you for your support and participation in the KAL this year; we love this sweater and we think you will, too!
