Romi Hill – Workshop 1: 1, 2, Pick Up Stitches

1, 2, Pick Up Stitches

Are you unsure what exactly to do when a pattern says “Pick up and knit stitches?” How to make it all look even? Where to pick them up?

No worries, my knitting friend! Romi’s got your back. Join her as we set up our knitting to make picking up stitches easier to do, and then pick up and knit in all those pesky little places: on the diagonal, perpendicular to your existing knitting (think button band), and along the cast-on edge to knit in the opposite direction!
