60: Garter Stitch


Listen Later

Garter stitch is one of our favorite fabrics: elastic, stretchy, and squishy!

NOTE: Karen said some nonsense about how to do a steeking panel during the question portion. Her nonsense was not correct. Listen to next week's episode instead of what she said here and you'll be much happier!

First historical mention of garter stitch from The Lady’s Assistant for Executing Fancy and Useful Designs in Knitting, Netting and Crotchet Work here
