Sun Dragon Make-a-longs are a community event: near or far, we are enjoying the feeling of knowing others are knitting or crocheting the same thing or style! Our make-a-longs are no mystery, there are no required fees to participate, though this year we have a bundle that buys access into help times and videos, as well as extra entries into our givaways (yes we want to try some this year!). Regardless of if you buy in, you can participate near and far with your own yarn, or yarn from the shop. We are a community near and far that participates for the joy of challenge and camaraderie!

Our Make a Longs in 2026 are a spin on what we have previously offered. As before, you can participate from anywhere, and share progress in the Sun Dragon MAL Facebook page, tag us on social media (@sundragonartandfiber , #sundragonMAL, etc) or send us photos for our newsletter!

If you would like to buy into one of the Make A Longs (see schedule below), it is $95 per make-a-long, and here is what you get for that price:

• 8 hours of help

• virtual: 4 general Coach & Connects on zoom, usually the last Sunday of the month, 

• in shop: kickoff session and 3 Friday drop in help sessions at the shop related to the project

• access to any extra help videos I make on the project (the number of these will vary depending on the make-a-long), 

• 10% off supplies for your project upon request (contact us for those purchases if not coming into the shop).

• Extra entries into the giveaway (see below).

Other ways to participate regardless of purchase (no purchase necessary):

Make one of the patterns! You can do this on your own, with friends, or come to one of our sit-n-stitches. Please note anything entitled “sit-n-stitch” is a community event, and not instructional. You are nit limited to yarn from the shop, but bonus points for a purchase!

Post during the Make-a-long period on social media (Facebook or YouTube) and tag Sun Dragon in the post (@sundragonartandfiber), or hashtag #sundragonmal or #sundragonmal2026 or #sundragonmal(insert name of MAL)

Send us pictures of what you’re working on! I’d love to add them to my newsletter, and if I can add pages here share them here too. Email me here. You can also share posts on the Sun Dragon MAL page on Facebook.

Enter the Giveaways! I’m still building these, but there will be ways to enter more than once using all the methods above (tagging us in posts, sending us pictures, attending specific events, etc). Stay tuned for more info.

Topics for the 2026 Make-a-longs are a return to favorite classics!

The Laulu shawl is a great way to learn or practice lace and cables. it starts small, gets wider, and narrows again in construction, so you learn the skills over a small number of stitches. The size is very adaptable too, from a shawlette to a larger wrap depending on the number of repeats of the pattern.

Project classes in 2025 will include a Saturday main class, with some having optional followup session times if you need further assistance. The number of follow-up sessions will depend on the size of the project, all are $12/hour. You can always come to a Friday drop in help session for $12/hour if you have attended the initial class!

The follow-up optional time for the Laulu shawl is Wednesday September 3, 2-4 pm.
