To get you in the mood for the Swiss Yarn Festival, we have planned a knit-along! We will knit the “Cordelia Tee” together on Instagram, which was specially designed for the festival.

How does the Knitalong work?

The pattern “Cordelia Tee” by Simone Ryan will be knitted during the Knitalong. The shirt is knitted seamlessly from the top down and consists of elegant simple cables. There is a short and a long version.

The Pattern is available in 3 languages. German, English and French and will be published on 9 December 2023. Everyone who buys a kit from one of the exhibitors will receive the pattern for free.

Timeline

Release: 9 December 2023
Start of the Knitalong: 6 January 2024

Conditions of participation
