Last Day to Join 👏 Faye Fringe Bag Challenge Knit Collage 2024-02-26 | Enrollment for the Faye Fringe Bag Challenge ends tonight 2/26 at 11:59pm PST. Follow the link to join me! knitcollage.com/collections/challengeA long time ago, I felt called to try knitting and to create my own sweaters and accessories. I didn’t know it then but do now; when you’re just starting out, that’s when you need the most support through teaching and expert coaches to push past mistakes to learn and grow. I did it the hard and long way and it took me YEARS to try techniques that scared me. I knew there had to be a better way.That is why I created the Faye Fringe Bag Challenge and our Knitalongs. These knitting experiences are an immersive learning environment that is the opposite of the long and hard way. You don’t have to go through what I did to get my results and to make things you love. The Faye Fringe Bag Challenge is an ultra supportive environment for you to up level your knitting skills and set your creativity free. It’s exactly what I wish would have existed when I was starting out. Shave years off the learning curve and jumpstart your knitting journey with us!Today is the very last day to enroll, with doors closing at 11:59pm PST tonight, 2/26. Follow link to details 👏🙏knitcollage.com/collections/challenge #knitcollage #knittinglove
Surprise BONUS Tutorials Added! Knit Collage 2024-02-26 | A few days ago when I went live here, I got so many questions about lining the Faye Fringe Bag. You asked, I listened! As part of the video course I am adding two bonus tutorials: How to Line Your Bag and How to Knit a Bag Strap. Despite having a deep love for knitting, I actually studied fashion design in college and used to sew my own clothes. I’m getting back to those roots! Expect a super simple tutorial on how to create your own Faye Fringe Bag Lining, either by hand or on a sewing machine. The Bag Strap Tutorial will also be a fun, optional modification you can choose to add to your bag.Last day to join the challenge is today, 2/26!

New favorite spot to knit and crochet 💞 Knit Collage 2023-12-08 | A few weekends ago we put a chair in the bedroom, a vintage chair that reclines and has a footrest. It’s my new favorite spot to cozy up and knit. I’m still working away on my Inner Beauty Cardi, rainbow edition. I had to rip twice already….. oops 🤪 and am wearing my new Maisie Cardi, a fave available now in the web shop as a pattern or kit! #knitcollage
