Let’s make mittens together this fall! 🧤

The air’s getting crisp, the PSLs are flowing, and it’s time to cast on (or chain up!) for the coziest project of the season — the First Fall 2025 Knit and Crochet Make-Along!

This year, we’re keeping things fun, fast, and practical with mittens — your choice of fingerless, full, convertible, or thrummed styles. Whether you’re a knitter, crocheter, or both (hey BiCrafty Bestie 👋), there’s a version for you that’ll make your hands — and your heart — happy.

And here’s what you need to know 👇
🧶 The free make-along features the Andes Thrummed Knit Mittens and
the Rockies Thrummed Crochet Mittens.
⭐ The VIP Experience includes the ad-free PDF and video tutorial for those thrummed patterns + plus bonuses that make this the best First Fall deal ever!

🎉 What You’ll Be Making

🆓 Free Make-Along: Thrummed Mittens

Everyone who joins the free First Fall 2025 Make-Along will learn how to create the Thrummed Mittens — available in both knit and crochet!

You’ll follow step-by-step instructions and video tutorial lessons to make the warmest mittens ever, featuring fluffy thrums (tiny tufts of roving worked into your stitches) that create a soft, fleece-like lining inside.

These are cozy, giftable, and full of personality — perfect for dipping your needles or hook into a fun fall project with Marly and the community.

💡 If you’re only here for the free event, this is the project you’ll make from start to finish.
💡 The Thrummed Mitten patterns (both knit and crochet) will be released when the event begins on October 31, 2025. You’ll get an email reminder when it’s time to start stitching!
