Hey Knitters, What Do You Want to Learn?

February 11, by Sarah White. 13 Comments

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!

    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

Have you read?

Declutter and Get Set for the Season with the Get Organized Toolkit

One of my missions as a crafter is to encourage people to use what they have to make something great. Accumulating stash is fun, but at some point you realize that you have more than you can ever use, and that can be really overwhelming.

A couple of years ago I wrote a book called How to Declutter Your Craft Supplies, which is all about why it’s so hard to let go of stash and how to deal with it. This is something I still struggle with and I’m in the midst of cleaning out my office/studio yet again (seriously, how can I still have so much stuff when I’m not buying anything new?).

If you’re gearing up for spring cleaning (or fall cleaning!) you need to check out the Get Organized Toolkit, of which my book is a part. This collection of more than 60 ebooks, courses, guides and printables will help you organize your home, business, mind and life.

There are so many great products here, from decluttering guides to advice on how to organize your book collection, cleaning up your iPhone and dealing with mental clutter. You’ll learn all about minimalism, get a planner to help you stay on top of home maintenance and learn how to build a capsule wardrobe, among other things. It’s a great way to get a lot of helpful advice all at once to help you lead a more organized and peaceful life.

The bundle is on sale through March 29. You can read more about it on my blog or go here to buy. And if you have specific questions about decluttering craft supplies or using your stash I would love to hear them!
