March Year of Bulky Hats KAL
gather here Classes
Remember the Year of Mittens, Hats, and Gifts? It was ages ago, before the pandemic. Good news though, we're gonna knit bulky hats in 2022! And we want to help you explore all kinds of knitting techniques by hosting a Year of Bulky Hats KAL all year long.
Patterns will release on the first Friday of each month: March's hat is designed by Courtney Kelley. Ivy Hill is bobblicious! These bobbles are big and bold and fun to knit. The hat starts with a garter rib and jumps into a bobble diamond pattern - both written and charted - before decreasing in pattern for the crown.
Because we want maximum participation we are having a little contest. Join us for all 12 KAL’s, complete all 12 hats, and you will WIN a bag of Kelbourne Woolen’s Germantown Bulky in the color way of your choice! Plus other cool stuff. What? You don’t need 12 hats? Well there are lots of people that could use a hat in New England. So make that hat and we’ll make sure it goes to someone in need.
Limited to 6 students (17 yrs of age or older)- Level: Advanced Beginner - Intermediate (you know how to knit, purl, cast on and cast off.)
- We provide: moral support and great company
- You bring: a copy of the pattern (it’s a free download on Ravelry) and 123 yards of bulky weight yarn (designed for Germantown Bulky!), 16” (40 cm) US 9), 16” (40 cm) US 10.5 , and a set US 10.5 DPNs for finishing, a ring stitch marker, and tapestry needle. Wait - would you like the kit? It's available now! Finish your hat in class and we'll use our pompom makers for the perfect pompom! Don’t forget that we always offer 15% off class supplies!
