On the Edge: Picking Up Stitches With Confidence

Shaina Bilow • Shaina Bilow Designs

Watch Time: 18 minutes

 

During this presentation, Shaina simplifies how knitters can approach their pickups by breaking down the two main types of edges that knitters will encounter.

She talk about the ratios involved in picking up along the edge of the work (without getting too involved in math).

In the presentation, Shaina inspires confidence in knitters that they can do this, and have it look good, too!
