Hi Tracy,

There is a particular moment in knitting and crochet where something finally clicks and you think, ohhh, that's why.

You have probably had a few. The tip that explained why your edges never looked right. The trick that made a step you dread take half the time.

Those moments are hard to find on purpose, because you cannot search for something you do not know exists. So I gathered 25+ knit and crochet designers to hand you theirs, all in one place.

The  <https://kwchopsticks.krtra.com/c/PuZTj8z3H9Cp/63WLW> "Ohhh That's Why" Summit is back Tuesday September 15 to Friday September 18, with 25+ classes of 20 to 25 minutes each, free to attend.

 <https://kwchopsticks.krtra.com/c/PuZTj8z3H9Cp/63WLW> Grab your free ticket here >>

A few of the sessions waiting for you:

*         Why your sweater is not fitting right, and no, it is not your body (knitting)

*         Your gauge swatch lies, and how to make it tell the truth (knitting)

*         What turning chains really are, when they count and when they do not (crochet)

*         Knit effects in crochet, creating the illusion of knitting with a hook (crochet)

*         Finally fixing the gap in your socks (knitting)

You can  <https://kwchopsticks.krtra.com/c/PuZTj8z3H9Cp/63WLW> get all the details about the "Ohhh That's Why" Summit over here, but here's a quick overview:

*         The "Ohhh That's Why" Summit will run from Tuesday September 15 to Friday September 18.

*         Each day will be packed with amazing speakers ready to hand you the tips they wish they'd known sooner.

*         We've got a pop-up Facebook group where you can connect with other makers, ask questions, win prizes, and more!

*         The summit is absolutely free to attend, with every lesson available to watch for 48 hours.

Want neater knit ribbing?

One of my favorite tricks for a neater ribbing is twisted ribbing! In this week's new Youtube tutorial I share the differences between regular, twisted and half twisted ribbing and show you how to knit them.
