Knit Your Own Adventure Summit: Swatch School!

I’m excited to be part of the Knit Your Own Adventure Summit again! This year’s event is the Swatch School Edition. This is a free 3-day virtual virtual event where 20+ teachers each share one signature technique on a small 6-inch swatch. You can try all the techniques that interest you, and decide what you love most!

Knitters get to:

  • Try new techniques without starting a whole project
  • Learn in short sessions, 15 to 20 minutes each
  • Build real skills, from gauge and charts to fixing mistakes without ripping back
  • Connect with other knitters in a friendly space where mistakes are normal

I’m giving a presentation about Log Cabin Knitting. I love log cabin knitting; it’s easy garter stitch knitting, perfect for multi-tasking or meditative knitting. I’ll show you how to pick up stitches along the edges of your knitting, and how to use your “magic number” of stitches and rows.

This summit is free! You can watch the presentations for 48 hours after they go up. You can also upgrade your access with an Expedition Pass, but basic access is totally free.

You can get all the details about the Knit Your Own Adventure Summit over here, but as a quick recap:

  • The summit will run from November 3-5, 2026
  • Each day will be packed with amazing speakers who are ready to help you learn
  • The summit is absolutely free to attend, but you can choose to get the upgraded Expedition Pass for bonus resources and an upgraded event experience, including lifetime access to all the sessions

Looking forward to it! I’ll be in a live discussion panel on November 4 with other designers including Jen Lucas. Her presentation is on blocking lace. We’ve collaborated before on other projects, it will be fun to meet up again!
