🧣The Annual Christmas in July Make-Along! (July 11–31)

It’s back, baby—and this year, we’re not just decking the halls… we’re sleighing the whole season! 🎁 Say hello to Sleigh the Holiday, our fabulously festive make-along that’s got more charm than a plate of grandma’s cookies.

This year’s lineup? Absolute yarn magic:

🎅 Not So Ugly Christmas Sweaters – because you deserve to strut your stuff in something you actually want to wear.
🧣 Holiday Cowls – squishy, stylish, and stuffed with stranded colorwork sass.

And yes—we’ve got both knit and crochet versions, because we’re nothing if not BiCrafty Besties around here 💖 Whether you’re team hook or team needle, you’ll be stitching up something sleigh-worthy.

✨ These projects are festive, fun, and 100% wearable—perfect for everything from holiday parties to cocoa-fueled movie marathons. You’ll be fa-la-la-fabulous in no time.

Get Details Here: Sleigh The holiday MAL

💻 The cowl patterns will be FREE right here on the blog during the event, or you can treat yo’ elf to the ad free pdf over at the Marly Bird House. Both versions will have video support on youtube.

🎁 The sweaters are the true showstoppers of this holiday stitch fest—and they’re tucked away like presents under the tree in the VIP experience over at the Marly Bird House! 🎄✨

You’ll get all the festive perks: printable PDFs, unlimited access, and ad-free stitching bliss. Because nothing says holiday cheer like colorwork without the chaos (or the pop-ups). These are your ultimate sleigh-the-season secret weapons—and they’re waiting to shine! 🛷💖

📅 Both the Not So Ugly Sweaters and the free Holiday Cowls will be released in jolly little drips from July 11–31, giving you time to stitch, sip cocoa (or iced coffee), and sleigh the season one stitch at a time.

So grab your yarn (details about this will be added by 7-3-2025), pick your project, and let’s sleigh the holidays together! 🛷✨
