Sisu MKAL 2026

Something new is taking shape beneath the surface. Spring is bright, but this belongs to fall. Only a few knitters have seen what’s coming. **Welcome to the 4th annual MKAL with Sisu.** This year, we’ll cast on a soft sweater with a round yoke and a gently flared A-line body. The construction is yours to choose. Knit it top down or bottom up. Both paths lead to the same design. Last year, more than 1,000 knitters joined. This time, we aim higher. **How it works** The pattern unfolds in four parts. You’ll receive one piece each week from October 1st. Just enough to keep you moving, not enough to reveal the whole. By week four, you’ll have everything you need to complete the sweater. *There’s no deadline. No pressure. Just slow progress.* The MKAL is online, but not solitary. You’ll get access to a dedicated Facebook group and Ravelry topics where knitters share their versions as they emerge. Colors, yarns, interpretations. Quietly different. All part of the same structure. After purchase, there’s nothing more to see. Not yet. You will only receive a picture by email for now. More information will be added this fall. **Schedule** **April 26th:** Sign up starts **September 29th:** Sign up ends **October 1st:** MKAL starts **October 31st:** MKAL ends **October 1st:** Pattern part 1 **October 5th:** Pattern part 2 **October 12th:** Pattern part 3 **October 19:** Full pattern Until we start small hints about the pattern and the inspiration behind it will be released at [@sisuknitwear][1].
