Ladderback Jacquard knitting tutorial for stranded knitting

Ladderback Jacquard is a great technique for catching long floats in stranded knitting so they don't show through on the other side. This tutorial will explain why I recommend using it, and how to work it both flat and in the round. I also share a technique that makes it easier for telling apart your ladderback jacquard stitches from your regular stitches, to help you avoid mixing them up and messing up your color chart!

What a cute sweater and bag. Love your designs and I love the video! I really want to try these patterns out! They look really interesting and fun! Did you line your bag?

The best LBJ tutorial I found yet!! I love your tarot card designs. Are the patterns gender neutral? Also, are the bust sizes in your chart the finished size? Thanks

@starcrossedknits Күн бұрын

Aw I'm so glad! Yep the bust sizes in the chart are the finished size. The sweater doesn't have any bust shaping for instance, but I haven't designed mens' sweaters before so I'm not 100% sure on what qualifies something as gender neutral or not.. I would check against the sizing chart, and if you want to adjust I'm happy to help advise (eg for broader shoulders, larger biceps, longer arms, whatever)!

Is there a pattern for the bag? Also I love the way you pronounce your name. My cousin is the only other person I know who says it that way. ❤

i haven't released it yet but i want to sometime later this month or in july, i just got sidetracked with getting out some other patterns first! and aw i love that your cousin says it this way too, it seems like the less common pronunciation! i was named after my grandmother ♥
