It's not exactly easy.

I joined the shoulders and finished the neckline on the lace Wings tunic over the weekend. I am about 6 or 7 in into the sleeves. I am super excited and just trying this on I can tell I'm going to get a lot of use out of this sweater

Oops.

Do you stress over laddering down multiple rows?

Especially with lace?

I used to, but since I keep making mistakes, I keep getting more opportunities to practice.

Share in the comments your fears.

I'm here for you, before you frog everything and starting over.

So, here's the truth: •Thinking knitting is bet

So, here's the truth:

•Thinking knitting is better than crochet is like thinking that oil painting is better than water colors. How absurd is that!? One isn't better than the other. They are totally different! They do different things and have different outcomes. Understanding what makes each technique unique and beneficial allows you to employ them where they are best suited.

•Crochet can ONLY BE DONE BY HAND! It cannot be made using a machine, the way knitting can! Crochet is just as deserving of "the good yarn" as knitting!

•There are LOTS of fibers that yarn can be made out of, and that is increasing every year! It DID used to be just sheep wool, silk and cotton, then along came bunny and goat angoras, then along came the man made nylon and acrylic fibers … and in the last 20 years, there has been a massive explosion of materials from truly human-made to natural-base human-processed, and traditionally understood naturally occurring fibers. It's fascinating and amazing! Did you know that yarn can be made out of MILK!? Ya, that's a thing.

•If a fabric fiber does not feel good on your skin, it does NOT MATTER if you are allergic, sensitive, or just plain ole don't like it!

Tired of getting the side-eye in the yarn shop whe

Tired of getting the side-eye in the yarn shop when you ask about fiber allergies?

At Perfectly Knotty, we believe fiber should feel good on your skin, period.

I see your frustration with getting help at local yarn shops:

•Not knowing what yarns are safe to use when you or someone you are stitching for has fiber allergies, or how to substituted if a pattern is written for something that you don't have, can't get, or can't use.

•Feeling dismissed when you walk into an upscale yarn shop and being looked at like you are from outer space when you ask about allergy safe yarns, or wool free yarns, or worse, mention that you crochet!

•Feeling like you already have SO MUCH yarn!

Has a local yarn shop sent you to WalMart to buy Red Heart Super Saver because you crochet or have a fiber allergy?

I have! I get it. It's discouraging.

I felt like my craft was inferior. I felt like I did not deserve to be able to use quality yarn to knit or crochet.

I felt like I didn't deserve to get help, support, and teaching because my crochet was somehow inferior to their knitting.

All of these things, and more, are the lies that I was conditioned to believe, and eradicating those lies is what drove me to created Perfectly Knotty for you.

Do you let the pattern decide what size your top should be?

Have you ever made a "stitch-to-fit" garment?

One of the best things about slow fashion is that you get to decide what size, color, texture. You get to decide how loose, how tight, how long.

And you can decide for yourself when you understand your yarn. When you understand gauge. When you understand how your stitches work together.

Lace Wings Tunic is a great pattern to starting learning with! You can find it on my Ravelry page.

Super wearable, you'll want to knit it in different colors and yarn textures just to expand your skills!
