During this pandemic, I’ve hungered for people with common sewing interests like myself, and Janice has come through, once again. I love the assortment of knits that she carries. And I picked up a few clever tricks during this class, one being to always stabilize the seams. This is especially a good thing to do with the “sweater” knits.
