When learning how to read knitting patterns, most people’s journey looks similar.
1. You learn to knit.
2. You start creating simple size-less items like blankets and scarves.
3. You take the dive into knitting patterns.
The problem is, that leap from step 2 to step 3 is big. Knitting patterns use weird jargon, shorthand, and reference things like gauge that you may not have ever dealt with before.
This is why I created this ebook, How to Read Knitting Patterns.
If you know basic knitting stitches, but struggle with all the other stuff, then this ebook is a must-have!
What will you learn?
- Which yarn, needles, and tools you need (including how to use a different yarn and still have it turn out the right size!)
- Stitch repeats, ease, and how sizes are noted
- Why you need a gauge swatch, and how to make and measure one (along with what to do if it doesn’t match the pattern!)
- Special stitches and repeated patterns
- How to read line-by-line instructions (broken down using examples from real-life patterns!)
- Assembly and finishing touches
- The 3 ways to block your project (including which is the fastest and which is the safest!)
- And tons more tips and tricks!
