Guest speaker: Olgalyn Jolly - Cut 'n Sew - Replay Live Archive
I am am Olgalyn Jolly, founder of O! Jolly!
I am a designer of knitwear and knitted textiles with a past in the performing arts.
Attracted to and inspired by luxurious fibers, I love looping yarns and manipulating them into interesting shapes, getting the visual rhythm going, repeating a motif.
I love the fact that a knitted textile can be created with just a single thread. The design is executed, and the yarn end is passed through the final loop. The knit fabric, a physical documentation of a beautiful and complex idea, is complete.

Lisa B Thanks Sue for arranging this and thanks OJolly for such great information. |
Sue J Measure along the sewing line |
Chris L So when you measure the edge you will need to measure 1/2" down from the cutting line? |
Juliet P what kind of cast on selvedge process do you recommend for the ribbing? |
Juliet P Are the silver reed machines comparable to the vintage Brother and KnitKing machines? |
Chris L Does the template give the actual sewing line or the cutting line. |
Cheryl D thank you for sharing with us today. |
Patricia H I would like to thank you for pointing out that we need to do the neckline in quarters rather than front and back. That would make the neckband easier to put in |
Lynnette D Are we knitting the fold line at a tighter tension? |
Tina B Why quartermarks, when the back is shallower than the front cut out? |
Cherie S How do you figure out the neckband length for the relaxed size so that you have enough length to work with? |
Lynnette D so, otherwise, we would have a sloppy neckband |
Jacqueline W What type of marker to you use on knits? |
Terri S Use a walking foot on sewing machine? |
Terri S Do you serge sleeve holes and neck line right after cutting it out? |
Lara F ease? |
Kristin C What type of home sewing machine features should I look for to use for knitwear? |
