Vintage Modern Knits-a-long!
Happy Valentine’s Day!
We have been feeling a ton of love in these last few weeks, thanks to those of you who have said such nice things about our book and the Fibre Company yarns. One of the best things about the book’s release has been the opportunities we have had to visit yarn shops, meet knitters and teach classes. Sadly, our travel is limited to the mid-Atlantic, so we have been brainstorming ways to connect to those of you outside of our neck of the woods.
One of the ideas that we came up is to host a knit-a-long, with Kate knitting one of her designs and Courtney one of hers. The best part? YOU get to decide what we knit, and in turn what you will be knitting! From now until the start of the knit-a-long on March 8th, we are asking you to “vote with your hearts”. Two of our projects with the most hearts on Ravelry will be the chosen projects for the knit-a-long, one of Kate’s and one of Courtney’s. Once selected, you will chose which of the two projects you knit with us!
We will be sharing our progress in the Vintage Modern Knits group on Ravelry and here on the blog and will also be hosting “virtual” help session a few times throughout the process. Stay tuned for more info, but in the mean time, get hearting!

Great idea! I vote for Kate’s Adelaide yoke pullover and for Courtney’s Brigid jacket!
