Be A Better Knitter: Increases and Decreases

Tuesday, September 30, 2025, 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM ET
Kate Atherley

This workshop is a deep dive into shaping methods. We’ll cover key ways to add and take away stitches in your knitting. We’ll talk about decorative and visible methods, and methods that hide; we’ll talk about left-and right-leaning, and when and why it’s important to mirror and pair them. Along the way we’ll share tricks to ensure you will never again need to look up M1R and M1L, give tips to help you decide what version to use if the pattern isn’t specific – and discuss why a neutral increase is often your best choice.
