This video is a knitting masterclass on increases. It is meant for experienced knitters who want to eke out those last 5 percent. The video is split in 4 parts. First, I am talking about slant, why it matters and why it might be misunderstood when it comes to increases. The second part is all about practical applications and how to increase certain knitting stitch patterns. And in the third part I talk about the all important difference between increases and decreases, while the last part of this video talks about stacking increases and why you cannot use the same increase in all circumstances.
