Last summer I really enjoyed the Summer of Books and Yarn challenge that I ran - not least because it really helped to kick start my flagging reading mojo.

If you have been feeling in need of a bit of invigoration - whether in the reading or knitting department (or both) then the readalong/knitalong might be just what you are looking for.

Starting when schools break up* and running for the six weeks of the summer holidays I thought it would be fun to have a modest reading challenge.

• Six weeks

• Six books

• Six reading prompts (optional)

• A six-week long KAL for any of my patterns

Obviously I would love it if your chosen pattern for the KAL was one of mine, but of course WIPs and other projects are very welcome too.

As a little incentive though I'd like to offer an exclusive 20% discount off any of my patterns with the code SUMMER2023

*I know that school holidays are different depending on where you are in the world but for practical reasons I'm going off the English school system where I am located.

The list of book prompts and suggestions will be sent out next week but if you don't want to miss anything you can sign up for the dedicated 'Summer of Books and Yarn' email list by tapping the box below.

And if you’d like to browse patterns and use the 20% discount code you can see all of my designs on my website - or on Ravelry.
