🌊 The 2026 AdoreKnit Exclusive: Splash Pad Party Collection 🌊
Created for the 2026 Splash Pad Party Knit-a-long

This year’s collection is built around the Splash Pad Crew, a cast of sea inspired characters shaped by Jen’s watercolor artwork.

The crew grows out of those same details, reimagined into sea inspired characters that drift along with your knitting through the summer.

Each one carries our signature “26” starfish, tying the set together and marking this year’s knit a long in a way that feels like something you get to be part of.

At the heart of the set is the Tide Pool Turtle, drawn directly from her original illustration.

Two coordinating progress marker sets round out the collection, with options in both a purple toned crew and a blue version.

Meet the crew:
The Splash Pad Whale, moving quietly through the water.
The Tide Pool Turtle, steady and serene.
The Jelly Drift, floating gently through the water.
The Coral Octopus, tucked into the reef, a hint of mischief.
And the Splash Pad Party 2026 logo piece, featuring a seahorse on the blue version and a school of fish on the purple version.

If you’re ready to dive into the Splash Pad Party and pick up all the extra points, there are three coordinating project bags available in the Exclusive Splash Pad Party Crew Collection.

The Splash Pad Party Knit-a-Long runs from May 22 through July 31, and we’re excited to be back as a Pro Shop Sponsor for our 8th year.
