It’s been a long time since I was a beginning knitter. And while there is always more to learn I feel pretty comfortable offering advice and knitting tips for people.
I’ve decided I want to start (probably restart, if I’m being honest) doing a technique Tuesday post, where I talk about something related to the actual how of knitting.
I could write about all sorts of things, of course, but I’d really love to know what you want to know more about.
Need help deciphering stitch patterns, reading a pattern, choosing a size? Want advice on using different kinds of needles and why you’d want to use different kinds? Something else I haven’t thought of?
I really want to know. Drop a comment below to let me know what you want to learn (anything from different cast ons to how to knit a sock to whatever’s on your mind) and I will make every effort to address all your questions on upcoming Tuesdays.
As usual, thank you all for your support, for reading and for your feedback!
How to draft a pattern.
Why would you use different ways to cast on? And when to use them? I always do the same cast on.

I need to go back to the beginning! I’ve been asked to crochet or knit hats for NICU and nursery babes and although I adore crochet, I think knit might be more appropriate for fit and warmth.
I’m interested in brioche
I like to see how you do the knit in the front and back/ and purl in the front and back. I’m not sure if i’m doing those increases correctly.
I would love to learn brioche knitting. I need to understand the how’s and why’s of it, not just the mechanics.
I’d like to learn how to use circular needles
What is the correct way to change the color of yarn when knitting. It would be extremely helpful if the technique is also easy.?
My colorwork attempts are laughable. Help!
I’ve been knitting for decades and always make my own patterns, but have never learned how to do raglan sleeves. Also, would love tips on buying yarn that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg.
Adjusting a pattern to increase or reduce the size. I am currently knitting gift bags and want to make some quite a bit larger
