Very cool! I have a blanket I finally finished "knitting" and all that's left is connecting them! Now I can finally call that blanket DONE! Great presentation. This one goes in my "keeper" list! Thanks

Thank you for this excellent presentation. I especially appreciate the formula for calculating stitch-to-row gauge for seaming as well as picking up!

This is a beautiful thing. Such a needed tutorial. I mostly crochet, but knitted a sweater last year and it wasn’t clear about the 1-2 ratio when stitching sleeve to shoulder. Thanks for this video. 👌
