In 2016, Marie Greene of Olive Knits launched her first 4-Day KAL. This year is the final year for this ambitious project, and we are very happy to participate again. The pattern will be available for pre-order on May 28th and the full pattern release and cast-on date is Wednesday, July 1! In the next few weeks, we’ll have a sample of the sweater and swatches here in the shop for you to see, and every week starting July 2 at Knit Night, we’ll be able to answer questions as we KNIT ALONG together!
This year is a bit of a "Choose Your Own Adventure" style. There are two different patterns: the Watermark Pullover and the Watermark Cardigan. These are two separate patterns and will be sold separately. Knitters can choose which version they want to make.
Marie Greene says, ‘The real goal of this KAL is to knit a sweater faster than you thought you could, whatever that might be. For those who like a challenge, feel free to try your hand at the speedy 4-20 day pace (based on your size). We recommend starting with 4 days for the smallest size, and adding 2 extra days for every size as you go up the list. But you don’t have to speed through it! We’ll be celebrating and knitting throughout the month of July, so you can work at the pace that’s best for you. The goal is to reach the finish line – however long it may take to get there. We’re here to help you knit a sweater faster than you thought you could. You get to decide what that challenge is for you.’
