This winter, Scheepjes is inviting knitters worldwide to embrace the excitement of growth and renewal with the Spring Forward Make-A-Long (MAL). Starting January 15th, this five-week event is perfect for intermediate knitters ready to expand their skills while creating a stunning blanket.
 
The project focuses on richly textured squares featuring cable patterns and other intricate designs. Participants can choose from three Aran-weight yarn options—Stone Washed XL, Truly Scrumptious, or Chunky Monkey—for a cozy, quick-knit experience with exceptional stitch definition. Whether you prefer a timeless monochrome palette, one of the designer’s featured colorways, or a combination of your favorites, this blanket is a true canvas for creativity.
 
Each week, new pattern parts will be released alongside detailed video tutorials to guide you through the process. Join the Scheepjes Facebook Group to connect with fellow crafters, get support, and share your progress. By the end of the MAL, you’ll not only have a beautiful, handcrafted blanket but also a deeper understanding of knitting techniques to carry forward into future projects.
 
As we knit our way toward spring, each stitch brings a sense of optimism and accomplishment. Don’t miss the chance to join this inspiring journey. Let’s “spring forward” together! 🌸
