   Canadian Classics - Q3 2019
   Rewards: Up to 1500 yards and 5 stars

KAL Details:

This Canadian craft-a-long that starts on July 1st, 2019 and runs through September 30th. When we started looking back through some of the classic patterns from the very beginning of Knitty and Ravelry, when so many of us first got really, truly obsessed with knitting, we were blown away by the number of them that were designed by Canadians! Clapotis, Lace Ribbon Scarf (that's our very first ad we ever placed!!), Sockhead Slouch Hat, Wisp, Camp Out Fingerless Mitts, Just Enough Ruffles, Marian, Rogue, Dashing, Ribbed Lace Bolero, Everlasting Bagstopper - the list truly goes on, and on, and on, and it's easy to see why they remain popular. So, pick a Canadian pattern published before 2010 and fall back in love right along with us.

How it Works

This knit-a-long officially begins on the first of July. First, choose your pattern! Pick your yarn, maybe even get ambitious and do a swatch (while earning your Swatchbuckler badge!), and cast-on with your fellow ESKers in the Ravelry thread. When your project is done, head to your Yarnathon dashboard to submit your project and get your yardage and stars. Our goal is to have as many of you as possible finish your projects within the timeframe of the knit-a-long (truly knitting "along"), but we'll accept submissions for all 2019 knit-a-longs all the way up through December 25th to allow maximum participation.

Prizes: All 2019 KALs have six size options to allow everyone to play. You'll earn more yardage and stars the larger your project is. You can combine as many projects as you'd like as long as all of them are at least 100 yards.

Requirements for ALL knit-a-longs:

  • All yarn should come from Eat.Sleep.Knit except for minor embellishments
  • All projects should start on or after the start date for the knit-a-long and be completed and submitted by December 25th, 2019
  • All individual projects should use a minimum of 100 yards, even those being combined with others.
  • All projects should use the patterns or themes specified by the individual knit-a-long requirements
  • All projects completed within the knit-a-long calendar timeframe will be eligible for the Ravelry prize drawings for that knit-a-long.
