Knit Alongs

Welcome to the home page for Knit Alongs at Cashmere Goat.

Ready, Set, GO!

Our 4th annual Finish Along kicks off this Sunday, June 14th! 

We ran our first Finish Along (FAL) in the summer of 2023 as a low-stress, positive, and shame-free way to slow down and take stock of our making. 

We've found that many makers, ourselves included, have a few "out of sight - out of mind" projects nagging them from the depths of their project bags.

Maybe we caught a case of Cast-on-itis at some point during the winter (it's highly contagious, you know), or maybe we were just too busy to see that big project through. We might have hit a snag or made a mistake and are unsure how to move forward. Or maybe we fell out of love with the pattern or yarn we were working with. 

Whatever the cause, the Finish Along is a fun and judgment-free space to reengage with those pesky UFOs (unfinished objects) during the busy summer months, when it can feel overwhelming to start something new.

Like our regular Knit Alongs, the Finish Along is not a race! Though we do tend to lean in thematically. 

In the Finish Along, we're not checking attendance, or tracking your time or stitches put in, and we're certainly not judging you for having a whole lot of unfinished projects - because we do, and we're going to do some finishing right alongside you!
