Knitters' Day Out KAL

KDO has been knitting friendships together since 1985. In continuing the camaraderie that sets KDO apart from other shows we decided to host a year-long Blanket KAL! The squares for the blanket have been designed by committee members, past and present, as well as some of our regional teachers.

Annual KDO Kowl
In 2018 the committee added a knit-a-long project to our weekend and encouraged attendees to knit our unique design using their stash from prior years. Our initial design in 2018, the "Gathering Place Cowl" was designed by Irina Lawrence Mathias. In 2019, Ruth Thome designed the "Summerdale Cowl" for KDO attendees. And in 2020, Chris Blackford was hard at work designing the "KDO Kowl. This year we decided to go one step further and design twelve blanket square patterns that will be rolled out over the course of the year. Our hope is that you will join us in knitting the squares and then showcase your work at the 2022 Knitters' Day Out live event.
Come join us on September 29 & 30, 2023!
