KALibut -the Halibut KAL
£95.00
-
You asked for it - so here it is! The newest Tribe KAL!
As with previous KALs, your purchase is 100% redeemable against your yarn purchase.
We're knitting the amazing Halibut Sweater pattern by Caitlin Hunter @boylandknitworks, but using a unique stranded intarsia technique, instead of regular stranded colourwork.
We will also tackle how to change yoke depth to raise / lower sleeve split, if necessary.
More images in this Reel, and on this Ravelry Project page.
Our Zoom-based KALs are guided, which means we will be showing technique, with tips and advice as we go, and you don't have to have any intarsia experience to join, but you should be very confident with knit and purl stitches, casting on, and happy with stranded colourwork (or very willing to try!).
We tackle this lovely lot on this KAL:
• choosing yarns and colours
• converting the pattern from "in the round" to flat
• intarsia knitting & bobbins
• changing yoke depth
• make your own motifs - what works
• how to customise your sweater
• Seaming your gap with expert mattress stitch
We're there to guide you all the way: all the technique, tips, colour advice and camaraderie you've come to expect from our fabulous KALs!
(Zoom recordings will be sent in case you can't make it, or want to view later).
Your KAL Coupon is 100% redeemable against your yarn purchase! (Which basically means all the technique, Zoom sessions and emails are free 😁.)
Tribe KALs are all about community, yarny friendships, support and laughs. We keep doing them because they are so much fun! Try to keep your Friday evenings free during the KAL so you can get the most out of the KAL. Whilst there is a good amount of technique discussed during the sessions, the idea is more of a "knit-along" as opposed to workshops. It's more of a social thing 😁, where we encourage and inspire others with our creations.
Your KAL Includes: -
Tribe Coupon You can pick your perfect yarn from our massive selection! Check out the Yarn Recommendations tab on this page, or wait until you get your first email for more info.

Tribe Coupon:
Your £95 Coupon can be used towards any purchase on our website, except for Gift Cards. It is valid for 12 months. We highly recommend using yarns purchased from Tribe for your KAL, but you can use up a bit of stash on this pattern too.
We can't advise on yarns that we don't sell, and we love to share our KALers projects to help us to sell more lovely yarn (just to be super up front about it 😊.)
If you forget to use your coupon, we can't retrospectively fix this. But you can always use the credit any time over the next 12 months.
Zoom and KAL Rules:
Please do not share Zoom details with anyone, including recordings. All attendees on Zoom are required to have their camera (don't worry - no one will judge you for messy hair, messy bedroom etc 😁). Upon joining, Zoom attendees give permission for the sessions to be recorded and shared amongst KAL participants only.
I (Milli) will be available for KAL help during Zoom sessions and via the Ravelry group only. I'm afraid I can't address individual help via emails or phone.
Be kind and courteous.
No hate speech or bullying.
No promotions or spam. Please do not use the group to promote products from other sellers.
Respect everyone's privacy.
We very much encourage modifications, personalisations and knitting beyond your comfort zone! 🙌🏽
Have fun! That's the most important rule.
