Tune In with the Fasten Off Yarn-A-Long

In last year's Fasten Off Yarn-A-Long, Ask Me Anythings (or AMAs) with participating designers were introduced, as were Video Panels which featured 2 or more designers at a time. These went over really well with both the designers and the audience, so FOYAL organizers decided to do them again this year. 

In a change from last year, most AMAs are happening on the FOYAL Discord server. There was one earlier today with Jessica of Snickerdoodle Knits🔗 (link goes to her website SnickerdoodleKnits.com), which you can find, and read, on the FOYAL Discord server🔗.

Knit Dance Repeat Designs, aka me Síle, will be on the first Video Panel on Saturday. I'll be one of four featured designers with Aklori Designs🔗, Natalia Yarncraft🔗, and Shanalines Designs🔗 . If you're here you don't need to know how to find me ;) (All links are to the designers' own websites.) The Video Panel is taking place via Zoom on Saturday, December 16th from 2 to 3 pm Eastern Time (UTC -5). This chat will be hosted, and monitored, by Kimianak. If you're interested in the talk but unable to attend, it will be uploaded to the Fasten Off Youtube channel later. You can check out last year's Video Panels there too: https://youtube.com/@fastenoffyal🔗

The meeting information to join the Zoom session (and have the opportunity to ask the designers any questions you might have about their designs or designing knitting, crochet, or Tunisian crochet patterns) is here: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87377170933?pwd=TTF0Um5sZTdqSmtZRTJLQUZ2WEl0dz09🔗
