Hey, it's Jill of Jill Wolcott Knits! I have been designing knitwear since 1993. I am mostly a texture and color person, but hate color work. I write, teach, and design knitwear. I am an expert in sizing and fit and I would love to teach you what I know. 🧶⠀ ⠀ This photo is pre-pandemic. 2.13.2019. I bought the yarn when we were in Wellington, NZ (2018) and knitted a Positano cowl to go with my favorite blouse. I find big furniture--really big--completely amusing. I love to travel and it is perhaps one of the few perks of being a senior citizen. 🛫⠀ ⠀ My collaborator Jamie and I would love to get measurements of your body--just as it is--so we can work to make things that are Fit For Your Body. My website has tons of information in addition to nice things. Use the link in bio to find links.📏 #fitforyourbody #fashionknit #passionknit #fiberuarychallenge #fiberuary #knitweardesigner #knittingwriters #sizeinclusiveknitting #knittingpatterns #knitters #knittinglife https://www.instagram.com/p/CoIOyfhvADc/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

If you wonder why I keep talking about sizing, it is because it is the key 🗝 to every puzzle for making garments that fit. There are different issues, and different approaches and solutions, but so far mostly they have been fairly non-inclusive. They work for someone like me who deviates from a standard, and has sufficient knowledge to make adjustments. That might be the case for you. Let me share some 💭thoughts. Also a fun piece on studio chaos, plus an essay on a Perfect Dress.👗 #fashion #fashionknit #passionknit #sizingmatters #anysize #anygauge #knittingsizes #knittofityou #knitsthatfit #knitsthatfityou #knittersofig #knitweardesign #knitting #knitwear https://www.instagram.com/p/Chi4XSuLBxN/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Draft and redraft. I print out every draft of every pattern or anything I'm writing, mark them up before going back to my computer to correct. Swatches are part of drafting too. #knitweardesignersofinstagram #knitweardesign #knitwearfashion #fashionknit #passionknit #knittingswatches #patternwritersofinstagram #knittersofinstagram #knittersgonnaknit #knittersofig https://www.instagram.com/p/CeAfS3mLpLP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

All too human - is that the worst that we can be? Revealing my shame. Not sure that I feel better, but I feel honest. If you signed up for the missed class, please let ML know that you would love to have me teach it. I'm available and eager. Read my blog. #knitdesignersofinstagram #knitweardesign #passionknit #fashionknit #whoweare #alltoohuman #zenstatesofmind #beyourself #knittersofinstagram #knittingaddict #knitters #knittingexpert #knittersofinstagram #knittersoftheworld https://www.instagram.com/p/CTtahSyr06L/?utm_medium=tumblr

It is #favoriteFoFriday 💕 My favorite finished object of this week is my #elationshawl 😊 This week the weather is just crazy. Yesterday was a real summer day, super warm and nice and I went for a swim in the lake nearby. 🏊‍♀️ (Please keep your fingers crossed that it was not the last time for this year! 🤞) And today it is so dark and gloomy and is has been raining cats and dogs all day!!! 🌧⛈🌦 I love shawls for the time in between the seasons that we currently have. I usually wear them covering my shoulders to replace a cardigan. And I love the bright color of my ELATION Shawl. It makes everyday just a little more exciting and fun! 🌞💕 What are the finished object that you have been most in love with this week? What do you like about them the most? I'd love to see them. #knittingpassion #passionforknitting #passionknit #knitswelove #welovetoknit #ilovetoknit #ilovetoknitshawls #iloveknitting #knitwearlover #knitwearlove #knitwearlovers #shawllover #shawllovers #shawllove #lovemyshawl #gartershawl #garterstitchshawl #beginnershawlpattern #beginnerknittingpattern #easyknittingpattern #easyknitpattern #easypeasy #quickknits #herbgardenknitwear https://www.instagram.com/p/CTplv4aI5EX/?utm_medium=tumblr

What a Difference The Gauge Makes https://www.jillwolcottknits.com/what-a-difference-the-gauge-makes/?utm_campaign=coschedule&utm_source=instagram&utm_medium=jillwolcottknits&utm_content=What%20a%20Difference%20The%20Gauge%20Makes Real life proves this to be an ongoing subject that needs clarification. This post talks about getting gauge--and why you should. There is a connected post about row gauge.⠀ ⠀ Ultimately, you have to know what you want from your knitting. Do you want to make what you see represented in the sample, or do you just want to knit? You are the boss of your knitting, but information will help your process and the product. #gaugematters #knittingswatches #knowyourgauge #yarnmatters #passionknit #fashionknit #fashionpassionknit #knittersofinstagram #knittersgonnaknit #knittingaddict #knittersoftheworld #knitstagram #alwaysknitting https://www.instagram.com/p/CF07y4PJdD8/?igshid=oriv0y4usgo8
