Spring is in the air, and I’m so excited to cast on with you for the Springtime Sips Knit-a-Long! 🎉 From April 1-14, we’ll be knitting adorable mosaic mug rugs—a fun and satisfying way to add a handmade touch to your coffee or tea routine. Whether you’re new to mosaic knitting or looking for a quick, creative project, this KAL is the perfect way to learn, connect, and craft together!
🧶 What is the Springtime Sips KAL?
A Knit-a-Long (KAL) is a group project where we all knit the same pattern together! Throughout the KAL, I’ll be sharing daily tutorials on Instagram to help guide you through each step. Plus, you’ll have the support of the whole community to cheer you on!
🦋 The Design: The Springtime Sips pattern features a bold butterfly motif in mosaic knitting, framed by a soft garter-stitch texture. Using just two contrasting colors, you’ll create a striking design with a surprisingly simple technique—no stranded colorwork required!
📋 What You’ll Need
✔️ Yarn: Two contrasting colors in any weight you love (DK or worsted recommended for a nice mug rug size).
✔️ Needles: Appropriately sized for your yarn (US 5-7 for DK, US 7-9 for worsted).
✔️ Notions: Scissors, tapestry needle for weaving in ends.
✔️ Springtime Sips Pattern (see below for where to get it!).
