KINDRED KNITS KNIT-A-LONG
& GIVEAWAY

DECEMBER 27 to MARCH 22

To celebrate the release of Aleks’ new book Kindred Knits: Patterns from My Estonian Family Archives, we're running a KAL (knit-a-long)! Join Aleks in knitting one or more of the 15 patterns in the book over 12 weeks.

During the KAL, chat with Aleks and your fellow KAL knitters in our Ravelry group. We will be sharing tips, yarn and our project progress in a supportive group.


To kick off the KAL, Aleks will be hosting an Instagram live to chat about through how it will all work and some ideas of what patterns to pick and yarn ideas. We will also have 2 zooms sessions to chat live with our fellow KAL knitters. The zoom sessions will be held one part way through and another to celebrate the end. Each of the zoom sessions will be recorded in case you can’t join live.

Instagram Live KAL kick off - December 27th at 8pm EET / 6pm GMT / 1pm EST

First Zoom Meet Up - January 18th Zoom at 7pm EET / 5pm GMT / 12pm EST

End of KAL Celebration Zoom - March 22nd Zoom at 7pm EET / 5pm GMT / 12pm EST
