Need Help?Not So Magic Formula - Replay Live Archive
Shaping your knitting and getting the increases and decreases JUST RIGHT can be a challenge. If you are altering a pattern or creating your own, guesswork just doesn't cut it.
Let's talk about shaping without adding, subtracting, multiplying or dividing ANY numbers!
Shorten/lengthen sleeves or shaped garments, add shaped shoulders for better fit, plan triangles for interesting shapes and turning corners.
