Virtual Knit Night September 16th
As many of you know, I was finally able to travel back home to see my friends and family for the first time in what feels like forever, and I am currently in Norway.

What George Knits - The Longfellow Cardigan
I never was into cardigans until I knit the Playdate in 2016. I love that cardigan and have worn it non stop ever since. So I think its high time that I knitted a new one.

Our anniversary collection – A Year Long Knit-a-Long
As we're sweeping 2020 out of the door (good riddance) we've had a chance to reflect on the year that has passed.

And...
