ALBERS scarf

WHAT IS A KNIT ALONG?

A knit along (or KAL) is a community crafting event, which can be held in person or online. It usually entails working on a specific knitting project, or selecting one within a common theme. Each participant creates their own piece while sharing their progress with the group. It offers a lovely opportunity to meet other makers and exchange experiences, stories and tips, all the while working towards a common goal.

 

WHY SHOULD I JOIN?

Crafting can be a lonely experience. And while that's often exactly what we need, it's nice to connect with other people over shared interests. Joining a knit along is a great way to make new friends who enjoy the same hobbies. Within the group you'll also find a supportive atmosphere, with people cheering you on as you learn new techniques and offering kind words when things don't go as planned.

ABOUT THE ALBERS SCARF

The ALBERS scarf is how you turn a pile of mismatched scraps and forgotten balls of yarn into a work of art. The design is a nod to weaving, from the stitch pattern to the color concept. The pattern guides you as you sort through your leftovers to create your own, unique masterpiece. If you choose wisely, there’s a good chance it will instantly match most of your handmade wardrobe.

ABOUT OUR ALBERS SCARF KAL

This is the perfect opportunity to have a bit of the vert knit test group experience, with a laid back pace and without any group size constraints.

To join, you must already own the pattern, as I will provide pattern support.
Please make sure the e-mail typed below matches your Ravelry receipt.

Our KAL will run from October 28th until February 1st 2027.

There's no obligation to be finished by that date. However, to spice things up, there will be a giveaway for those who manage to finish and post (IG public post) their FO on time ;)

The KAL will run on Instagram; you need an IG account to join. We'll have a dedicated group chat and hashtag (#albersscarfkal).

As the designer and host, I'll participate actively in the group chat, answering any questions that might pop up including pattern support.

To make sure we don't miss your posts, make sure to tag me, and feel free to also share them in our chat!

 

Please mind the information and content you share within the group chat, and treat it as the public space that it is. Only reshare content that has been either made public within Instagram or for which you have gotten the autors permission, and always include a mention! If you have a private profile and/or don't wish your pictures to be shared by other participants, I recommend always adding a note when sharing, to avoid misunderstandings. I assume no liability for shared content.

Everyone is welcome to join our group, no matter where you come from, how you look like, or how you indentify yourself as a person and a maker! Harmful behavior towards others has no space in our group. Please don't hesitate to aproach me privately if you feel harmed!

 

I can't wait to start hosting this KAL and to meet everyone!

Thank you so much for your interest,

Inês
