Already a Cocoknits fan? If you have made your Emma and you are ready for the next level of Cocoknits challenge.... Join Diane for a Franca along!
Franca is a hug transformed into a sweater. It is a big, cozy cardigan with a shawl collar and pockets. It has traditional Cocoknits shoulder construction - with a twist - you make the shawl collar at the same time. You need an Aran weight or heavy worsted yarn. You are not required to purchase yarn from us for a KAL - but it is always appreciated. If you are not stash diving try: Remix, Vintage, Alegria Grande, or Maxima - and if you buy the yarn from us, we will buy a copy of the Franca pattern for you. You will need a copy of the Cocoknits Sweater Workshop Book and the original Cocoknits markers.

I love that the Japanese use the same Kanji for crochet and knitting. And you will often find Japanese knitting magazines, and stitchery books have both crafts. These two lovely techniques playing with sticks and string should be considered compatible - like two sides of the same coin! We have long embraced crochet but are happier to have more and more people interested and more partners at HOKC willing to teach! If you are already a knitter but want to explore crochet – try our online beginning crochet classes - give it a try! Buy crochet supplies online and begin working on your crocheting techniques. If you knit or crochet already, you can join the Fiber Arts Nights together live on Zoom or Thursday Lunch Chat, where you can talk about new knitting/crochet techniques and new yarns.
