______________________________

This year-long mystery knit-along will consist of twelve colorwork knit square patterns, each representing a different zodiac icon, released one by one at the start of each astrological season to form a full blanket at the end of the year.

I’ve teamed up with my long-time friend and astrologer, Ramona Sidlo, to help guide us on this cosmic journey. She will teach us all about astrology and offer insight and direction to help us set our intentions and capitalize on the gifts and opportunities the year ahead will offer.

As always, Lion Brand Yarn will provide the kits. We will be working with Hue + Me as the mix-and-matchable 30-color palette will allow endless color combinations to represent your astrological chart or your home decor. At the end of the project you will have a gorgeous, meaningful blanket to display in your home or gift to a loved one.

Here’s how you can participate:

Patterns: The patterns will be released one by one at the start of each astrology sign, beginning with Virgo on 8/23. The patterns will be available for free on my blog or for purchase as printer-friendly PDFs.

Visit the landing page for links to all available patterns here.

Introduction to astrology course with Ramona on zoom. This class will provide you with the insights you need to add some astrology to your life. She will provide an overview of all 12 signs and their meaning along with lessons on how astrology can offer support and inspiration to get back to the more positive side of life and feel more joy, bliss, ease, peace, love, happiness, creativity, focus, flow, balance, and revitalization.

Access to our monthly “The Astrologer is IN” knitting circle & astrology zoom session. Held once a month for the duration of the year-long project, we will gather on zoom to work on our squares while Ramona leads us on an astrological journey with her expert live astrology report full of wisdom and guidance for the month ahead. Each session will include information about each sign, a few optional writing prompts and a live Q&A about the current astrological season. You’ll have the opportunity to ask both Ramona and me live questions. This will be recorded for those who can not attend or sign up later in the year.
