If you always follow a sweater pattern exactly, because you wouldn't know how to begin to change it, this is the class for you. There's a lot of information hiding between the lines of knitting patterns. Once you unravel the mysteries of the math and numbers, you will never blindly follow a pattern again.

There are so many wonderful knitting tricks that make our lives better. Over the years of knitting and teaching Patty has accumulated quite a few fantastic tricks. She decided to dig into her knitting bag of tricks and put them all in one class.

Make every pattern your own. How many of us look at a pattern in a book or magazine, and immediately start thinking about how we would like to do it differently. Learn the simple math to change basic sweater elements.

Patty's favorite knitting trick is to stop turning. If you hate purling, or are unhappy with your uneven tension, or simply aren't crazy about flipping that 400-stitch basket weave afghan around every time it's time to do a wrong side row, learn the joy of never turning!
