Build your knitting skills and create more polished projects ...

from the first stitch to the last.

Sign up now for just $47 and join me for the live virtual workshop on June 29 or July 1

As much as you love the process of knitting, its so frustrating when the finished project doesn't match the vision you had in mind.

Maybe the edges curl, the cast-on looks nothing like the bind-off, or the brim of your hat is so tight you can't even get the hat on your head!

What if there was a way to give your scarves, blankets, sweaters, and hats those polished and professional edges you admire so much in others' work?

The key to fixing these common struggles is in how you begin and end your projects.

Learning tips and tricks to improve your cast-on and bind-off techniques will completely transform the look of your finished projects.

You can master these methods, whether you've been knitting for 6 months or 60 years!

Creating polished and professional-looking projects starts with these 3 things ...

There are 3 crucial things you'll need to learn before you can create projects that look truly polished and professional

... from the very first stitch to the final bind-off.

Understanding the different methods, and how they affect your finished project.

Exploring more sophisticated methods to replace your default techniques.

Identifying the right techniques for each project (they're not one-size fits all!)

This isn't just any knitting class; it's a deep dive into the techniques that will set your work apart, taught in an engaging and interactive online class.

Hi I'm Jessica!

Hey there! I'm Jessica Ays, the designer and instructor behind Double the Stitches & the host of the Stitch Society Membership.

I've been a passionate creator my whole life, and I haven't put the yarn down since I discovered it 25 years ago. Yarn has completely transformed my life.

But I still remember how frustrating it felt when my projects didn’t quite look finished. Those stiff cast-ons and mismatched edges used to drive me nuts. If you've ever felt the same, you’re not alone!

Join me in this fun and practical workshop where I’ll teach you the secrets to clean, professional-looking cast-on and bind-off techniques that will improve every piece you make.

I can’t wait to show you how!

Real Questions from other Knitters

Do I need to be an expert knitter to benefit from this workshop?

Not at all! This workshop is perfect for adventurous intermediate knitters who are familiar with the basics and ready to learn new techniques.

If you are a more advanced knitter, but find yourself resorting to the same cast-on and bind-off methods over-and-over again, you'll love learning some new knitting techniques to keep up your sleeve.

How will I access the workshop?

The workshop will be held on Zoom on Sunday, June 29th at 2 PM ET and Tuesday, July 30 at 7 PM ET. The Zoom links will be sent in your welcome email.

All you need is a computer or tablet, an internet connection, and a quiet space to watch.. Learn with me from your comfy spot in your comfy clothes.

Lifetime access to the recorded version is included, and will be available to watch on demand in your workshop classroom by July 9. You can revisit the recorded lessons as often as you like, whenever you need a refresher.

Are materials provided for the workshop?

You'll need to provide your own knitting supplies.

A smooth medium weight yarn and knitting needles in a coordinating size are recommended. Solid, light, and bright colors are best for learning.

Is there any pre-work required to be ready for the workshop?

No, there is nothing you need to do in advance of the workshop.

You are welcome to cast-on along with me during the workshop, knit a few rows, and bind-off while we are together too.

Or, if you prefer, join me for the live workshop, and practice the techniques after the workshop while reviewing the recording.

Are the sessions transcribed?

Yes. All sessions have transcription available through the media player I use (vimeo).

Please reach out if there’s anything I can do to ensure you’re able to enjoy this event.

What is the refund policy?

Due to the digital delivery, there are no refunds for this workshop. If you cannot attend the live sessions, you will have access to the recording by July 9th.
