For knitters who are confident with their needles, but less confident with pattern instructions: this session is all about how to read and fully understand knitting patterns. We’ll explain all those abbreviations and terms you encounter, like WS and “even” and how to read instructions for repeats. We’ll demystify terms and techniques, and provide a master glossary so you’ll never be lost again.
We’ll explain how to choose and substitute yarns, and how to check gauge to make sure that your piece comes out exactly the way the pattern promises. And we’ll teach you how to understand pattern sizing and measurement information – including garment schematics – with a focus on making sure you always choose the right size for garment patterns.
This session is all about helping you take the next step as a knitter, so you can take on larger and more complex projects, with complete confidence.
