I can’t keep this sweater secret much longer… 🤭 Our Autumn KAL launches next week, and I can finally start sharing more about my design. I couldn’t decide between a sweater and a vest… so I knitted both. 😅 Which would you make? Learn more: https://stolenstitches.com/pages/knitalongs-with-carol

Lately, I've found myself doing it more and more... Not because I want two identical sweaters, but because I understand exactly what I'd like to change the second time around. 🫣

One little finishing tip I always use #knitsky. When sewing on buttons, I add a small thread shank to lift the button away from the fabric. It helps the button band sit nicely underneath without pulling.
A Bank Holiday and a knitting project... sounds like a perfect combination to me. Are you getting some crafting time today? #knitsky
After Friday’s autumn knitting chat… I must admit my camera roll is FULL of my Autumn Knit-along sweater, and it’s taking all my willpower not to share everything right now! 😅 Things to know before joining a KAL: https://youtu.be/bokkd1kmd8Y
