Hey Reader, it's Jessica!

Oh, do I have something fun to tell you about today! 🎡

This week, I'm taking part in a special online event called The Knitting Skills Playground, and I couldn't be more excited to share it with you.

Here's the idea: 24 knitting designers each contribute one premium pattern or workshop, and YOU get access to ALL of it for free.

Yes, really. Free.

From June 15-21, you can sign up and browse a gorgeous collection of patterns, tutorials, and skill-building resources worth over $300. Lace, socks, colorwork, garments ... there's something in there for every kind of knitter.

Whether you've been wanting to:

• Try a new technique without the overwhelm
• Find your next favorite project
• Finally use up that yarn sitting in your stash
• Build confidence in a skill you've been putting off

... there's something inside the Playground with your name on it.

And here's the thing I love most about this event: you don't have to knit everything. You don't have to download every pattern or make any perfect decisions.

You just need one project that makes you think, "Ooooh, I want to cast that on."

That's it. One little spark. ✨

My contribution to the Playground is my Tiny Treasures: Top Down Mini Stocking Workshop, and I'm so excited for you to get your hands on it for free. I'll teach you how to knit a teeny, adorable mini stocking while covering classic sock techniques - from a German Twisted Cast-On to the heel flap, gusset, and Kitchener Stitch toe. It's the perfect way to finally try sock knitting without the pressure of a full-size project. If socks have been on your knitting bucket list, now is the perfect time. 🧦🧦

Plus, our host Ashleigh Wempe is running a special live session called The Project Matchmaker, where she'll help you turn "I downloaded all the things" into "I know exactly what I'm casting on next." (If that sounds like something you need, you're not alone! 🙋‍♀️)

​
The Playground closes on June 21, so make sure you grab your spot before the gates close!

I hope to see you inside.

Knit Happy,

P.S. - If you've never done an event like this before, here's how it works: sign up once, browse the collection, and pick the patterns and workshops that excite you. You'll have until June 30 to claim your favorites. Easy as that!

P.P.S. - Just a heads up: the Knitting Skills Playground is completely separate from my Summer of Skills Challenge, which kicks off right after on June 22! The Summer of Skills is a 4-week members-only challenge inside the Stitch Society where you pick a technique you've been wanting to learn and work through it with a whole community cheering you on. Two fun things, two different weeks. 😊 You can learn more about the Summer of Skills right here.
