Welcome to the home page for Knit Alongs at Cashmere Goat.
Knit Alongs at The Goat are inclusive, fun ways to build community, expand your knitting skillset, and end up with a fabulous, new item of knitwear.
We're thrilled to announce our Spring Knit Along: it's the Love Note by Tin Can Knits! The Love Note Knit Along kicks off on April 6, and we'll once again be hosting optional Zoom and in-person meet-ups. The Love Note KAL will conclude at the end of May — and it’s A-OK to sign up late (we’re not fussy) — we’ll get you all caught up on any emails you’ve missed.
We love Tin Can Knits — their designs are accessible with helpful tutorials, they have a fabulous app (free!) to streamline the instructions to *just* the size you’re making, and we had so much fun and success with the Dog Star (Winter KAL 2025), that we selected another one of their designs for our Spring 2025 KAL.
Love Note is a sweet sweater with lots of possibilities for customization — short or long sleeves, dropped-hem (or not), use a single strand of DK-weight yarn or hold two strands together, and 15 sizes from baby through adult!
If you’ve never done lace before, never fear, this is a beginner-friendly lace pattern! When you sign up for the Love Note KAL you’ll receive weekly KAL emails with links to tutorials and resources so you’re well-supported.
