Bicoastal knitting in 2025

Are you planning your 2025 knitting? It’s just around the corner!

VKL NYC lineup

I’ll be teaching at Vogue Knitting Live in NYC January 17-19. My newest class is Whale Conga Line, which includes brioche, syncopated brioche, and increases and decreases. I’m also teaching YO? YO! Fun and Fancy Stitches, Minerva Entrelac Cowl, Log Cabin Knitting, Tink Drop Frog (Fixing Mistakes), and Sheepy Steeky Coasters, which is always a favorite. The New York show is always amazing, especially the market and fashion shows. Come knit with us!

Red Alder lineup

Red Alder Fiber Arts Retreat is February 13-16 in Tacoma, Washington. This retreat is at the Hotel Murano, which is lovely with lots of art glass on display. The classes are wide ranging, including knitting, spinning, weaving, and crochet. I’m teaching Brioche Pastiche (beginning brioche in the round), Whale Conga Line, Brioche Doctor, and Fun Stitches for Assigned Pooling. Come play with us!

I’m planning to attend Nash Yarn Fest in Nashville with the crew of Modern Daily Knitting March 14-15. This one’s just for fun for me! I’ll go to the all day festival, and the before and after parties. There will be lots of vendors that are new to me, so let’s see what comes home with me! I may have to spend some extra time before or after; I love the music scene in Nashville. And the boots!

Are you planning to attend any fiber events in 2025?

    I love that little “log cabin” thing that you are knitting here. It starts with orange in the middle, then lavender, then purple, then light blue. I don’t know what it is, but it’s adorable. Do you teach that in any of your classes?

    Also, what kind of yarn do you use for this project? Is it going to be a potholder?

    Merci beaucoup,

    Dawn

    • That’s the beginning of a log cabin square! You can keep going around and around and around; it makes a great blanket. Skills: garter stitch, picking up stitches, binding off stitches. That’s my log cabin knitting class!

  2. Thanks for sharing your classes calendar. Maybe someday. For me maybe a trip to the NW as I’ve never visited there. I can definitely see knitting based travel in my future as I start practicing traveling without the hubby. Funny you ask about 2025 plans as yes I’ve already started planning what projects I want to knit in ’25. My little knitting group here in Cincinnati just talked this morning about how we prefer to attend our nearby annual wool festival versus attend big festivals like Rhinebeck, etc.
