Here's what you'll learn:
-
Measure Your Favourite Sweater: I’ll show you how to take accurate measurements so your new version fits just as perfectly as the original.
-
Pick the Right Construction Method: We’ll discuss how to choose a construction style that matches the design of your sweater, ensuring you get the result you want.
-
Choose the Perfect Yarn: I’ll help you select a yarn that gives you the fabric you’re after, whether you want something cosy, light, or with a bit of drape.
-
Knit and Measure an Accurate Gauge Swatch: You’ll learn how to knit an accurate gauge swatch, a crucial step to ensure your sweater turns out the correct size.
-
Calculate Stitch, Row Counts, and Shaping Rates: I’ll guide you through turning your measurements into stitch and row counts and show you how to calculate shaping rates for a great fit. If that sounds a bit technical, don’t worry! Everything’s explained very clearly, and it’ll make perfect sense once you see how the steps connect.
-
Write Simple Pattern Instructions: I'll show you how to write a basic set of pattern instructions based on your measurements and gauge, so you’re all set to start knitting.
A Skill for Life
Most knitters have that one shop-bought sweater that fits perfectly but feels wrong. The fabric’s scratchy, the yarn’s poor quality, or it just doesn’t wear the way you’d hoped. You’ve probably even searched Ravelry for a pattern that looks close, knowing it won’t quite match.
This workshop ends that. You’ll learn how to take your original sweater and recreate it properly, keeping the fit you love in yarn that suits how you want it to feel and wear.
It’s a simple, repeatable process that gives you real freedom in your knitting. Whether you’re building your knitting skills or thinking about designing your own patterns later on, this is where it starts. By the end, you’ll know exactly how to recreate any sweater you love, a skill you’ll use again and again for the rest of your life.
