Here is the thing nobody says out loud: the pattern is a suggestion.

Every session at the Knitters Paradise Summit 2026 teaches you to question it, adjust it, or skip it. Jen Toll knits mitts with no pattern at all. Marte Stenvaag has a tool that writes one around your yarn. Woolly Wormhead turns a hat 90 degrees to see what happens.

You already know how to knit. This is about being allowed to change things. October 5 to 9, free.

Stretchy jeans crotch mends - continued!

These jeans needed double tambourine darns. Now, for those of you wondering what it looks like from the front, you can see that you can see it. And you can really only see it from a very particular angle from the back, or if the wearer is sitting with their legs opened wide. I think that’s a pretty fair trade off when you’re talking about keeping these quite expensive and well broken in jeans from ending up in a landfill!!

Stretchy jeans are comfy to wear but don’t hold up that great, especially in the inner thigh. Stretchy denim can also be a bit tricky to mend while maintaining the stretch. Here are my two favorite methods:

Tambourine darning - it is stretchy in all directions, and quite strong. I’ve used a scrap piece of worn stretchy jersey cotton as a patch because not only was there a hole, but the entire area was very worn. Better to get ahead of it now than to wait for another hole. I used a soft sashiko cotton thread for the stitching, which quickly becomes virtually unnoticeable to the wearer. The visible side looks like a firework burst!

Goma-shio darning - great for reinforcing worn areas. I used the same soft sashiko cotton thread, and since the wrong side stitches are longer than the right side, it makes a very soft fabric of its own which feels lovely next to the skin. The right side looks like little seeds.

I just love a peekaboo pocket mend!

The cuffs on this sentimental multigenerational handknit jumper were starting to come undone. I used a combination of techniques to reinforce them so this heirloom piece can keep on living.
