With Patty, you learn not just how to do something but why things work the way they do. I learned so much from this class, including how to fix mis-crossed cables (which I did more than once!). Last night I started a sweater from another designer and struggled with the instructions until I realized how much easier it would be if I mapped the sweater like Patty does. I did it and now the pattern makes total sense. I’m a much better knitter for taking Patty’s classes.
