1 – 2 PM ET: Live Speaker Panel on Zoom:
Yarn Confessions: The Stash, the Splurge & the Strategy
We've all done it. Bought yarn with no plan, no pattern, and absolutely no regrets… until the stash got a little out of hand. This panel is your safe space. Our speakers get honest about their real yarn habits: how they shop, how they store, and how they make confident substitution decisions when it's finally time to cast on. Come for the confessions, stay for the strategy. You'll leave with fresh ideas for shopping with intention, knowing when to splurge vs. save, and the confidence to substitute yarn like you actually know what you're doing. No judgment here. Just yarnie friends sharing their truths.
7 – 8 PM ET: Social Stitch Session on Zoom (open to all attendees, limit 1,000)

1 – 2 PM ET: Live Speaker Panel on Zoom:
When Knitting Gets Hard: Dealing with Frogging, Frustration, and Starting Over:
You know the feeling. Hours of work, one tiny mistake, and suddenly you're staring at a pile of yarn that used to be a sweater sleeve. This panel is for every knitter who has ever shoved a project under the bed and pretended it didn't exist. Our speakers get real about their most frustrating knitting moments: the projects they frogged three times, the techniques that made them want to quit, and how they found their way back to the needles. Because struggling with a project doesn't mean you're doing it wrong. You'll leave this panel with honest strategies for working through the hard parts, knowing when to push through and when to let go, and the reassurance that every knitter you admire has been exactly where you are. You're not alone in this. Not even close.

DAY 3: The Details That Make the Difference
The finishing touches, the fit adjustments, the little things that take a project from “pretty good” to “I made that and I love it.” Today we're diving into the details that separate a knitter who follows a pattern from one who truly understands it.
LIVE SESSIONS:
10 – 11 AM ET: Summit Skills Challenge with Jessica on Zoom

1 – 2 PM ET: Live Speaker Panel on Zoom
What We Wish We Knew: Advice for Our Earlier Knitting Selves:
Every knitter has a moment they look back on and think: “If only someone had told me that sooner.” Maybe it was the year you discovered you'd been purling backwards. The sweater you frogged four times before realizing the pattern was wrong, not you. The technique that felt impossible until one sentence from the right person made it click. In this panel, experienced knitters share the lessons that took them years to learn: the shortcuts they didn't know existed, the mistakes they kept making, and the advice they wish someone had handed them at the very beginning. Consider this your shortcut.
