Meet the Maker: Jessica’s First Sweater!

Jessica, my sister-in-law, recently finished knitting her very first sweater...so naturally, I invited her over (all the way from Santa Fe) to talk about it. In this video, we're chatting about what it's actually like to knit your first sweater, from the fears and assumptions we carry into a big project to the surprises waiting on the other side. We talk about confidence, mistakes, perseverance, and whether sweater knitting is really as intimidating as many knitters imagine. Jessica's first sweater was The Nineties by Alicia Plummer, and it sparked a conversation that I think many newer knitters (and perhaps a few experienced ones) will relate to. Whether you've knit dozens of sweaters or you're still trying to convince yourself to cast on the first one, we hope you'll enjoy listening in. 🧶 Jessica's sweater: The Nineties by Alicia Plummer In this week's Patreon After Show, Jessica and I continue the conversation by chatting about future knitting plans, dream projects, and doing a little Ravelry window shopping to see what might be next on her needles. The episode goes up later this week on the Pareon. ✨Additional content and KALs on PATREON:   / wool_needles_hands   ======================================================= Shop WNH Merch: https://woolneedleshands-shop.fourthw...
