Training Videos

Knitting is fundamentally visual, and videos are sometimes worth thousands of pictures in figuring out what makes sweaters successful. I’m in the process of re-shooting a lot of LYS-specific video content, but in the meantime, the publicly-available videos I’ve made on topics from measurement to great sweater fabric are great resources as you get CustomFit up and running in your shop.

  • Measurement video playlist – this collection of videos includes instructions on how to take CustomFit measurements in the three main groups: Essentials, which can be used for basic, long-sleeved straight, a-line, and tapered sweaters; Extras, which are necessary for sweaters with different sleeve and body lengths, and sweaters with waist shaping; and Optional measurements that can be used to achieve greater control over the shoudler fit of the sweater you’re creating.
