Have you ever pulled a knit sweater from your wardrobe and noticed the neckline has stretched over time?

Here's how I recently reinforced one of mine so that it holds its shape.

Have you ever found a pattern you absolutely love, only to discover the yarn is discontinued?

Or it’s impossible to get where you live?

So, you find a substitute, cross your fingers, and cast on…

Only to discover halfway through your project that the yarn isn’t behaving quite as you expected.

That’s exactly the problem my Yarn Substitution Method Webinar is designed to help with.

In this 90-minute webinar, I’ll walk you through how I assess a yarn before casting on, looking at fibre, weight, meterage, gauge, structure, and how the yarn actually behaves when knitted.

The goal?

To help you choose a substitute that works with your pattern, rather than finding out halfway through that it doesn’t.

This is how I tension my yarn... Do you tension your yarn the same way, or is your style completely different?

What are your go-to favourite knitting needles?

I switch between wood and metal depending on the project, but I always reach for interchangeable needles. That way, I can easily find the right needle type to match my project.

I might have been caught knitting at a gymnastics competition when I was too nervous to watch!

Where have you managed to sneak in a few rows?

Have you struggled to blend different dye lots?

Helical stripes are one of my favourite tricks for alternating yarns seamlessly when working in the round. Plus, they’re a lovely way to work single-row stripes without a visible jog.

Are you searching for something extra special for your shawl edging?

This is a great decorative bind-off for the edge of a lace shawl. As a bonus, if you have a series of decorative peaks in your lace, you can modify your bind-off so the loops sit centred on top of them.

Have you tried integrated I-cord before?

I love that it gives such a beautiful finished edge to your work, and as an added bonus, it's worked at the same time as you knit your piece, so it speeds up your finishing.

Shhhh… “I’ll get back to it” is one of knitting’s biggest little lies.
