Knitting Circle

A cozy game of crafting warm winter wear. Draft yarn into your knit and purl baskets according to the selected stitch pattern, then start knitting! Figure out how to follow the knit/purl order while also creating point-scoring patterns.

Game Features

Strategic Drafting

Draft your yarn as either knits or purls based on the how the basket has been set, then pass the baskets around the circle Can you manage your draft to get all the right yarn colors in all the right stitches?

Beautiful Patterns

Score more points by creating beautiful and unique color patterns. Choose your patterns for aesthetics, convenience, or points. How will your rainbow long johns look paired with your abstract scarf?

Puzzley Placement

You might want to knit the rainbow, but do you have your yarns in the right stitch? Following the knit/purl pattern means you might have the right colors but the wrong stitch. You'll need some clever problem solving to make your vision a reality.

Knit and Purl

Did you know that there are just two basic stitches in knitting? Knit and purl. They're literally the opposite of each other: when you knit a bunch of stitches and then flip it over, the opposite side is all purls.

In this game, you must alternate rows of knits and purls, which is a basic technique to make an item like a scarf. Your yarn tiles have a knit side and a purl side and will get assigned a side when you draft, making the surprisingly challenging puzzle of how to create your envisioned pattern while following the knit/purl squence.
