Palm Canyon KAL with Patty Lyons

WEBS is excited to be the official yarn vendor for the next Patty Lyons knit-along and video sweater class—Palm Canyon Video Sweater Class KAL. 

Palm Canyon is a fun knit with an integrated sleeve and tons of options. There two different yarns, two different decorative seaming options, and the top is also fully reversible! The pattern comes with tutorials for a variety of neck options, gauge options as well as body and sleeve length options. Not only does it come in ten sizes, but with a few mix and match changes, the pattern can have over 20 different sizes. Make one in each yarn and you'll have your favorite top for all seasons!

This is a fully written pattern with tutorials, sweater modifications, knitting how-to's and hours of videos and tons of fun! You can purchase the pattern here.

How does a KAL (stands for Knit-Along) work?
As soon as you purchase your pattern you will get your introduction and gauge videos, schematic and material information, so plenty of time to order your yarn pick your size and start your swatching. 

To keep us all working together and having fun, the pattern will be released on a schedule.  As you work your way through the pattern you'll also have a mini sweater pattern to work to help you practice and make your sweater decisions.

Join Patty's Ravelry group for discussion threads and more information, including prize drawings! Join the KAL anytime—the KAL info will stay live on Patty's Ravelry group forever, and the video tutorials will never expire! More information about scheduling and KAL FAQ is available on PattyLyons.com.
