Stitches United 2019 This year I took a couple of classes at Stitches United in Atlanta. They were FABulous classes! Friday was an all day class about multi-directional knitting. I am hooked! The concept of this notion is SO logical that it kinda blew my mind. Why isn't this already a thing?! The instructor, Myra Wood, taught us how to make fabric by knitting in different directions and THEN how to turn it into a finished project! It's brilliant. Saturday was spent learning how to make sweaters that fit from Jeane deCoster. Every time I take a "how-to-fit" class I learn something new. At this class I learned how to make a schematic from a written-only pattern. Again, logical but not something that has ever popped into my brain to do! Plus, she has her own yarn line, designs AND an online product for making patterns that are based on YOUR measurements. Keep your eyes open for upcoming classes based on things I've learned from
