Get ready to have some fun with Salty Sews learning about knits!  


Knit Happens will be a fun and informative lecture designed to demystify sewing with knit fabrics.


Discover why knits don’t unravel like woven fabrics, learn the difference between two-ply and four-ply knits, find out which needle you should always have on hand (and why), and explore the surprising fibers used to create knits - including bamboo! We'll also cover stretch, recovery, fabric weights, and other fascinating facts that will help you shop and sew with confidence.


To top it off, Debbie and Sara will share their favorite tips, tricks, and techniques for successfully sewing knits on both a regular sewing machine and a serger. Whether your brand new to knits or looking to improve your skills, this lecture will help you feel more comfortable tackling your next stretchy project.


No sewing required—just come ready to learn, laugh, and discover that knit fabrics aren't nearly as scary as they seem!
