Reviews"If there's one thing I've learned, it's to always listen to my tech editors. It's easy when everything is so well explained! The Knitting Pattern Writing Handbook should be required reading for all aspiring pattern designers; not just for the technical information about laying out your patterns with consistency and clarity, but for the included question and answer sessions in each chapter, where the authors dive into all the things you've wanted to know (but were afraid to ask)!"-- Hannah Thiessen Howard, Author of Slow Knitting & Seasonal Slow Knitting

You'll learn how to: Set a style and format for all essential components, Achieve accurate gauge, Build and use charts, Ensure thoughtful and inclusive sizing, Avoid common sweater pitfalls, Select and work with a tech editor, Take your knitting knowledge to the next level with this helpful guidebook from two professional knitting tech editors that sets much-needed standards for writing clear, accurate instructions--perfect for those interested in writing and selling original patterns. Knitting patterns are notorious for inaccuracies in measurements and confusing directions--but no more!
