Watermark by Marie Greene ( )

Don’t worry, you don’t have to knit a sweater in 4 days! The knit-a-long typically takes place through the month of July. Back when the first knit-a-long happened 10 years ago, Marie sat down and knit a sweater in 4 days. That started the first knit-a-long, which turned into an annual tradition. After 10 fun filled years, this is the last 4 day knit-a-long and we are so happy we can be a part of this tradition before it is gone.

Here is what Marie has to say about the pattern:

This year’s pattern will feature top-down, raglan construction with all-over lace and two different silhouette options: a classic cardigan, or a pullover. From there, knitters can personalize their project with three sleeve length options (short, half, long), and the option to work the ribbed edges in a contrasting color. The result will be a range of unique sweaters, no two alike. Think of it as leaving your own Watermark on your project.

Special Discount! Marie is offering the pattern with a $2 discount, if you purchase it before June 27th. Cardigan Pattern is here! Pullover Pattern is here!

Featured Pattern/Yarn/Workshop: Snowglobe Hat in Woolly Worsted

Featured Knitting Pattern: Snowglobe Hat by Tin Can Knits

“There is something magical about the sound of snow – the way it dampens all the usual noises, creating an indescribably soft quiet. The only sound you hear is a gentle crunching, as your boots break the surface and you sink into the drift. It’s as if time has stopped and the world has slowed.

With my Snowglobe hat to keep me cozy, I enjoy the world transformed.”
