We're thrilled to announce the January Knit Along: it's The Carbeth Quartet of patterns by Kate Davies! The Knit Along kicks off on January 7th, and we'll once again be hosting optional Zoom and in-person meet-ups.
The four patterns in the Carbeth series have a signature and quite distinctive yoke — yet each one has a little bit of a different flavor and level of challenge. They're all knit from the bottom up.
We hear it all the time:
“I’m just a beginner.”
“I can’t handle anything too hard — I’m not that good.”
The funny thing is, many times the above statements come from knitters who are way beyond beginner level.
Just the other day a customer self-identified as a beginner, then told me they’d recently knit an intarsia scarf.
So — why do we call ourselves beginners? Click here to read our recent post!
Tingling hands, achy forearms, pinched neck, tight shoulders — if you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, chances are it could be because of how you’re using (or abusing) your body while you practice your craft.
If you love making things with your hands and want to keep doing it without pain, it’s time to start taking care of your body like you’re an athlete. Because you are. Embrace it!
Comic books are fine, but I assumed Knitstrips was some publisher’s idea of how to make knitting seem cool. (I know knitting is most definitely cool, and even if it wasn’t I wouldn’t care.) After thumbing through the introduction by the authors, I knew I had to own this book — and I told my two best knitting friends about it, too.
