How the 2020 Knit Along with KAL Corner Works
Every third Thursday from January 9 through November 19, 2020, we’ll share a free knitting pattern for a project made using light (#3/DK) weight, acrylic yarn. This is a mystery knit along, so projects won’t be revealed in advance. Each project uses a maximum of 3 colors and no more than 660 yards (600 meters) of yarn. You can use yarn from your stash, or you can buy yarn. Some of my favorite light weight, acrylic yarns include
- Bernat Softee Baby
- Lion Brand Mandala
- Lion Brand Mandala Baby
- Paintbox Yarns Simply DK
If you’d like to experiment with other fibers, here are some of my favorite light wight yarns that aren’t acrylic.
- Cascade 220 Superwash (100% superwash wool)
- Cascade Ultra Pima (100% cotton)
- Lion Brand LB Collection Superwash Merino (100% superwash Merino wool)
- Paintbox Yarns Baby DK (55% acrylic, 45% nylon)
- Paintbox Yarns Cotton DK (100% cotton)
- Patons Grace (100% cotton)
- Willow & Lark Ramble (100% wool)
You can make your Knit Along projects to keep, for gifts, to sell, or to donate to charity while chatting with other knitters in our group and entering to win giveaway prizes!
We will have some amazing prizes for our end-of-KAL giveaway. More details will be added to this post later in January. Don’t forget to enter the giveaway at the end of this post by 11:59 p.m. on Thursday, December 10, 2020!
