Are you joining the Fasten Off Yarnalong 2026 this year? It's a fantastic event if you're knitting or crocheting gifts for the festive season; seeking a craft community; or just looking for some bargain patterns by independent designers. I'll be a participating designer this year, so everything I sell on Etsy will be eligible for the 25% off coupon code FO2026 between 20 November 2026, 21:00 and 3 December 2026, 23:59 EST (US/Canada Eastern Time) and eligible to be worked on in the event.
If you prefer using and storing your patterns on Ravelry or are interested in one of my patterns that's not on Etsy, pop back soon for an update!

What is the Fasten Off Yarnalong 2026
The Fasten off Yarnalong is an accessible make-along event, taking place on a wide range of platforms, for those making seasonal gifts from patterns designed by a wonderful list of independent designers. It lasts around five weeks from 20thNovember until the New Year and includes fun games, contests, and plenty of company to help you get your seasonal makes ready in a fun atmosphere.
After finding your discounted patterns on the site's 2026 database (check out the 2025 searchable database for inspiration until the event starts!) and using the coupon code FO2026 to get 25% off any discounted pattern you find using this search feature during the sale event that takes place between 20 November 2026, 21:00 and 3 December 2026, 23:59 EST (US Eastern Time), you can join the event on your chosen platform, e.g. here's the event's Discord, and the Fasten off team's Instagram. Share what you're making while oohing and aahing over others' projects and play some fun yarn related games too. You could even win a voucher for a pattern by one of the participating designers.
This year I'll be helping out by running some interactive sip and stitch style events where you can stitch along with fellow makers online and online events where you can ask some of our participating designers questions.
There are fun games, and a great chatty atmosphere, so don't hesitate; come join us! Do say hello if you see me online in one of the events (see my profile pic above). I'll be joining in too as I relax making a few projects from other people's patterns for once. I'll be sharing more in my newsletter, on Instagram and in the Yarnalong's Discord Server
