A Deep Dive into Knitting the Felix Cardigan: Lessons for ANY Knitting Project

Encourage Better: Knitting Adventures In Alaska

SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS WITH ME!

Join the start of Season 4 of Encourage Better Knitting and discover some tips for making a cardigan, or anything, in a thoughtful way to bring you joy and satisfaction!
In this episode, I share how I *really* take accurate measurements for my garments and my super secret, and sometimes slow, method of evaluating yarn substitutions for a project.
I share with you my entire journey knitting a wooly wardrobe staple (yes, in summer!)--- from the twinkle of an idea to cardigan drying and awaiting ends to be woven in! In this episode, you will hear how I switch up a few things, making The Felix Cardigan by Amy Christoffers of Savory Knitting. The suggestions and modifications can be applied to any knit you may consider.
So join me for a few stitches, rows, or rounds!
