with Sarah Veblen
An Online Extra to Threads #106
 
The amount of stretch varies from knit to knit, so Sarah Veblen, Sparks, Maryland, teacher and author, recommends that you try her techniques on assorted samples to learn how they behave and then experiment with the various types of neckline finishes you'll be creating.

Read Sarah's article, "Neckline Finishes for Knits," in the April/May 2003 issue of Threads (#106). If you're not certain how to quarter your binding and neckline, watch her other video, A Turtleneck Finish for Knits.

I used to think I needed the ribbing and since it was no longer available in matching colors as before I was ignoring making knit T's. I am delighted to see how well the body knit works just as well. Thank you! Posted: 1:38 pm on March 14th
