About the final project for: Cable Knitting Techniques for Timeless Garments

Cable Knitting Techniques for Timeless Garments

“Congratulations! You've reached the end of this course. Thank you so much for taking part and I hope you've enjoyed it. It's now time to work on your project. This could mean finishing the sweater you started by completing the course tasks or making a brand new project! Either way, I strongly suggest you take the time to gather inspiration and make a unique project of your own. Make sure to keep track of your progress with different pictures of each step. It'd be great if you could also explain the choices you've made along the way and tell us if you have any doubts. This will help me guide you better if you need advice. Here are the main steps to follow: The Yarn Choose the yarn you want to use for the sweater. Make a swatch so you know you have the right gauge. The Sketch Make a small drawing of the sweater you want to make.

The Cable Charts Draw the charts you want to use for the sweater. The Knitting Process Knit the sweater, starting at the neckband and working your way down towards the hem. Lastly, work the sleeves.
The Finishing Touches Finally, weave in all the yarn ends and block the garment.
I can't wait to see the project you come up with, so don't forget to share it in the forum. You can do so by clicking on "Create your project". Remember to share both the final result and the steps that have led you to it. It would be great if you showed a picture of each step and added a brief explanation about what you have done in each one. I will be more than happy to answer any of the questions you might have along the way! I will try to get back to you as soon as possible. In the meantime, participate in the forum, comment on others' work, and interact with the community. See you there! ”

“Thank you for taking this course with me and I hope you have learned a lot and I also hope that you are enjoying your new knitted sweater. This is now the end of the course, so I will give you a couple of final tips on how to make your final project even better. First of all, remember to play around with your cables. You can use any of the cables that I showed you in this course or pick up new ones from Pinterest, Ravelry or use Stitch dictionaries. There are plenty of other options that you can use and you can even make up your own cables. If you want, you can use the templates that I have...”

Knitwear Designer

Sari Nordlund is a knitwear designer based in Helsinki. After learning the basics as a child, she took up knitting again while in college and was quickly inspired to create her own patterns to bridge the gap between old-fashioned styles and more modern trends. She started out posting her designs on Instagram and Ravelry, later gaining visibility through knitting magazines. This paved the way for a job as an in-house designer at a Finnish yarn company, after which she decided to work solely on her own brand.

Inspired by Scandinavian minimalism and Nordic nature, Sari aims to create timeless classics with textured stitches that add a contemporary flair. Her work has been featured in renowned knitting magazines such as Laine magazine, Pom Pom Quarterly, and Amirisu. She has also collaborated with leading yarn companies such as Woolfolk and Brooklyn Tweed.
