DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?
Have you ever found yourself yearning for a community that truly understands your passion?
It's not uncommon to crave the companionship of fellow knitters who share your enthusiasm.
As much as our loved ones might support us, they often don't grasp the joy we find in selecting yarns and knitting intricate patterns.
This can leave us feeling a bit disconnected, missing out on the camaraderie and shared experiences that can make knitting even more enjoyable.
Do you sometimes find yourself stuck on a tricky pattern, only to spend hours searching online for answers?
The sheer volume of information available can be so overwhelming and time-consuming to sift through.
We've all been there—staring at half-finished projects, wondering how we'll ever complete them without some guidance or input from others who understand our craft.
It’s frustrating when you just want a quick tip or an encouraging word from someone who's been in your shoes.
That's exactly why I created the
a place where passionate knitters like you can connect, share, and thrive together!

My name is Jessica and I'm the knitwear designer and instructor behind Double the Stitches.
My journey to create the Stitch Society Membership began with a simple desire to connect with others who love knitting as much as I do.

Wondering what members love
about the Stitch Society?
“Jessica has done an amazing job providing a much needed community and continuing to inspire knitters. She is so kind and so sweet and it comes through so clearly in everything you do.
I've done a lot of classes, retreats etc. but I truly feel that you have done more to improve my knitting than anything else. Jessica's patterns are so clear and easy to follow. I've been able to finally able to transition over to knitting with charts and it's made a world of difference. It's reduced the counting and often helps to prevent mistakes while also helping me to recognize and correct them much sooner.
Jessica, you've been such a blessing.”

STILL HAVE QUESTIONS?
Still have questions? Don’t worry, I have answers!
Email me at hello@doublethestitches.com
and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.
Emails are typically answered within 24-48 hours.
Is the Stitch Society right for me if I'm a beginner?
Yes! I’m happy to provide support if you happen to get stuck on a stitch or technique that’s new to you! Some experience is recommended, such as knowing the basic stitches (knits and purls for knitters, single crochet, double crochet, etc. for crocheters)
Is the Stitch Society right for me if I'm already a great knitter, and confident in my skills?
I hope so! Our members skill levels vary greatly, and my goal is for the Stitch Society to be a fun and enjoyable and welcoming community where you can play with what you already know and maybe pick up a tip or trick you hadn’t considered before.
You’ll also be treated to a new pattern every month, virtual coffee chats over Zoom, interviews with some of my favorite people in the fiber industry, and free tickets to workshops I teach online.
Will I need a lot of fancy computer skills?
My goal is to keep everything as simple as possible.Our live events take place in our Facebook Group or on Zoom, and can be accessed from a mobile phone, tablet, laptop, or desktop computer.Patterns are delivered as PDFs, typically sent right to your Ravelry Library unless you’d prefer them emailed to you directly.There are no fancy tools, apps, or computer programs to purchase.If you have any questions or feel lost, just reach out for help and I’ll walk you through it all.
Do I have to use Facebook?
I built our Member Classroom as a place where you can access almost all content without needing to use Facebook.
Our Stitch Sessions are held on twice a month on Zoom.
Our Fiber Friends interviews are held live on Facebook. The replay will be added to our Member Classroom so you can watch the replay without needing to use Facebook.
The only feature you definitely need Facebook for is our private members-only community group, which is a bonus of the membership that you are not required to use.
Are the patterns Tech Edited and Test Knit?
Yes! It is such a valuable core part of the designing process for me. Your yarnie time should be enjoyable!
I use a professional Tech Editor who has super powers. She puts herself in your shoes, to find any tricky bits that may be unclear and help make the pattern as easy to follow as possible.
I also have a team of nearly 100 pattern testers, who’s skill levels vary from beginner to advanced.
What if I don't use Ravelry? Will I still get a pattern every month?
Yes, absolutely! Each month you’ll receive an email from me with access to your pattern download.
If you do use Ravelry and share your ID with me, I will add the monthly pattern to your Pattern Library there too.
Some months I may share a code with you to select a pattern of your choice. If you don't use Ravelry, I am happy to email you the PDF of your pattern selection.
My patterns are also on Payhip for an alternate way to view my collection.
How long will I get this membership price? Will the price ever change?
When you lock in this low price, it will never go up as long as your account is in good standing with no break in membership.
If you cancel your membership and would like to join again, it will be at the current price at that time.
When are the live events?
To hopefully accommodate as many members as possible, I alternate the days and times of our Stitch Sessions (aka Coffee Chats) are held on Zoom. Common times include weekends at 2/3 PM ET, weekday evenings at 7:30 PM ET, and weekday afternoons at 12/1 PM ET.
Our Fiber Friends Chats with my favorite people in the yarnie world are often during the daytime in the U.S. to accommodate the guest's working hours. Most have been sometime between 11:00 - 5:00 PM Eastern, but that may. vary depending on where they live too. These Fiber Friends Chats are recorded and available to watch as replays any time, either in our private Facebook Group or in our Membership Classroom.
Are there replays of the live events?
All Fiber Friends Chats are recorded, and available to watch in our membership classroom.
Our Stitch Sessions on Zoom are not recorded, to grant privacy to the members so they can share what’s on their mind without worry about anyone else watching it. I want members to feel comfortable turning their cameras on amongst friends, and to be genuine and authentic … and come in their most comfy clothes, joining from their favorite comfy chair!
