    Knitting with the Superba Forma

    If you saw my last post, about installing the Forma, this post is probably not coming as a shock to you 😉 This video is a bit longer than my others have been, and I swear it’s cursed, because it took me about ten tries to film each chunk. However, I think it covers most of what you need to know to start knitting using your Superba Forma. I will upload another video if I ever finish the garment – maybe I’ll cover how to knit the front and back, because I STILL can’t figure out how you’re meant to do it. As always with new equipment, the best place…

    Bulky Gauge Toddler and Child Hood Pattern

    I’m going to post this here, because Ravelry is giving me a hard time. It’s a basic hood/balaclava pattern for the bulky gauge machine (with ribber) that will fit from toddlers to older children. The finished item looks like this: It’s super simple to do, and would be easy to convert to standard gauge also. (I haven’t done that math, because you need your gauge swatch. I know you weren’t going to skip the gauge swatch, were you? Haha.) It’s a PDF pattern, which you can download here: BulkyGaugeToddlerandChildHood Happy knitting! Heather
