Knit a Strukturstrikk Sweater with me from Start to Finish!

Ever wondered what goes into designing and knitting a sweater from scratch? In this video, I take you along as I design and knit a sweater in fluffy tweed yarn from swatching, to grading, to knitting up the final garment. Knit your own Slate Sweater with the free pattern available on ‪@Hobbiicom‬ (coming soon!)

The sweater looks great and the yarn really pops once blocked. I can't wait to try the pattern.

Thank you! I really liked how everything came together after blocking too :) I'll update the description with the pattern link as soon as it's released!

It looks so cozy and I love the combo of the textured stitches with the subtle colour interest of the tweed. Did you ever take any garment design courses or self taught? It's amazing the amount of planning and maths that goes into sweater designs.

Thank you so much! I didn't take any classes, but I looked through a wide range of sizing and grading handbooks (Sister Mountain had the most comprehensive one) and tailored my specific sizing/grading numbers based on tester feedback, so it's gotten a little easier to grade with every pattern :) I actually really enjoy the math - it's one of my favorite parts of the process now!
