Sewing with sweater knit fabric without stretching the fabric is possible. Note: Using stay tape is for areas that you don't want to stretch, like shoulders and zipper area.

Using sticky dots is a great idea! Thank you for sharing. :)

Thank you Anita for this great video; You have taught and given confidence to a 73 year old lady to try this out. I am self taught, but now there are so many new fabrics, I am almost like a newbie learning to sew them. Again Thank you.

I enjoy your tips on sewing, tools and fabrics. I've been sewing for over 60 years give or take a few years because I go great guns sewing and then get distracted and set aside my sewing.. Now I'm getting back to sewing again. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Janet

I am sooooo/sew happy I have found you here on KZfaq university! I have been binge watching your videos. You are by far the best educator around! I am a professional seamstress, retired, and love your techniques. Thank you for educating correctly. I have seen so many on here that are just plain sloppy and don’t explain or demonstrate correctly. It makes me furious that they are teaching so many new sewists that will follow their directions and get frustrated when their results are not what they expected and give up entirely on sewing, thinking they just can’t do it! In reality they can be successful with the correct instruction. You do a great job here, Thank you!

Thank you so much for your feedback. I LOVE teaching beginners and it really encourages me when I hear that they are appreciating the details. My videos tend to be longer than most because I try not to skip steps. I teach the way I learn. Give me all the details and explain why. So far my teaching style is helping a lot of people, so I will continue. 💕
