Fall '24 KAL with Knot Another Hat

Let's get ready for Fall with a choose-your-DanDoh Knit-a-long (KAL)! Yumiko Alexander of DanDoh designs wearable pieces with simple shapes, rich textures, and unique stitch patterns. We love the simple, elegant looks that flatter all body types, and we at KAH have knit several DanDoh designs. Join us knitting your choice of five DanDoh patterns! We've chosen a range of patterns/styles, including something accessible even for advanced beginner knitters (if you are a confident knitter and want to choose a different DanDoh pattern, by all means do and still join us!). Details below.

Need KAL yarn inspiration and missed Sarah & Ingrid's Tuesday Lunch Chat on 8/13? No worries, catch the replay here or on our Facebook page and watch the always entertaining duo preview recommended yarns for the DanDoh patterns and fill you with yarn and color ideas!
