Swatch Workshop! Begins February 27, Runs 4 weeks

Why Swatch Workshop now? Below is additional information, and some answers to why Swatch-Workshop now.

Jill Wolcott Knits®
Swatch Workshop Now!
February 27 through March 26

Swatch Workshop: pile of swatchesUse swatches to achieve the knitting and designing projects you want. Swatch Workshop is a 4-week workshop to show you how your swatch is a magical guide through each project.  Find joy in the process of knitting swatches and reading their secrets.

I believe there will be about six hours of knitting swatches each week.  The swatches will be your gateway to new ways of finding information for your designing and knitting process.  You can use these swatches to begin your own library of swatches that you can turn to in the future.

Each week will have a different goal and you will be able to take it wherever you want beyond what I suggest. 

I will be available throughout the four weeks (at scheduled times) to talk 1:1 with you about your goals.  

I will have group chats once a week so you can explore questions and results with others.  Note:  These 1:1 and group chat sessions will attempt to accommodate different time zones.

Learn My Secrets!

Embark on this guided opportunity for knitting and designing discovery:  

  • What drives your knitting or designing?
  • What makes you the happiest as a knitter or designer?
  • What are those knitting secrets I claim live in my swatches?

I believe that not every type of knitting, yarn, fiber, stitch pattern, or project speaks to everyone the same way at the same time.  Yet, it is easy to feel that we should love what we see and want to do what is popular, but it is not always right for us, right then.  Sometimes scratching the itch a bit is just the thing. Then we can get on with what we want or need to do.

Well, if everyone knew them, they would hardly be secrets would they?  Seriously, it is often difficult to see because of preconceptions or ideas.  I have more than 15 years experience guiding design and product development students–and opening their eyes!
