What is a Gift-Along, Exactly?
So glad you asked! This gift-along is for knitters and crocheters, and it is a way to make 10 gifts between August 5th and Christmas. The best part? You will be working along with fellow yarny friends to keep you on track and share in the fun!
What’s involved?

- A schedule to keep you on track
- Email updates with links to patterns and the schedule
- A community of fellow knitters and crocheters to work along with you and
Who should participate?
Anyone who knits and/or crochets! There are 10 knitting patterns and 10 crochet patterns, and the schedule is designed to do either a knit project or crochet project following the schedule. So, at the end of the gift-along, you should have 10 gifts!
Do you have to make all 10? Absolutely not. You can do as many or as few as you want. 🙂
When does it start?
It all officially kicks off on August 5th and go until December 15. There is a mixture of 1-week projects and 2-week projects with some breaks in there to play catch-up or rest. You can jump in at any point, as well. There are no real rules here.
The hope is to try to stick to the schedule, though, so we can keep on track and all finish all our gifts on time.
A specific schedule will be provided, including the length for each project and which project will happen at which dates.
