Collab post: Lifelines are one of those knitting t Collab post: Lifelines are one of those knitting tools that you may need less as you grow in experience, but they never completely lose their usefulness. While I am usually pretty comfortable dropping back and fixing mistakes, when I know there’s a possibility that I might need to rip back several rows or I’m working in a darker yarn where fixing mistakes can be a little more challenging, lifelines really live up to their name. The pattern for these mittens designed in collaboration with @expressionfiberarts is coming early next month, and I’m really excited to share it with you! As always, they’re graded to multiple sizes and have instructions for how to lengthen the hand section to meet your unique hands’ fit needs.
