Episode 371 - The 12 Weeks of Gifting

Can you believe there are less than 12 weeks until the start of the holiday season? In this episode, Lee and Stacey chat about our annual 12 Weeks of Gifting, a series of free patterns released once a week leading up to the winter holidays. They share the concept behind it and how it began as well as how patterns are selected for it. Both of our hosts also created new designs for this year's set of 12 patterns and describe their creative process for them. In addition to 12 Weeks of Gifting, there's so much more going on! The Axiom KAL just started, so producer Andi hopped on to join Stacey in discussing starting the sweater. Lee and Stacey also talk about two new pattern collections and oodles of new yarns and new yarn colors. 00:03 Welcome to the Knit Picks Podcast! 00:36 Lee and Stacey share what they've been crafting in their free time. 02:29 Andi joins Lee and Stacey to discuss the Axiom KAL. 07:50 Lee isn't participating in the KAL but has a Swish Pops sweater on her needles. 09:03 The 12 Weeks of Gifting are here!
