Knitting

When Alice Beltran told us her idea for knitting patterns that use the form of comic strips, we nearly lost our minds. There’s something so tidy, and irresistible, about seeing pattern instructions rather than relying on old-school text patterns. For beginning knitters—and every knitter—we are proud to present Knitstrips. We hope you’ll share this free pattern with all your knitter friends, whether Betty or Veronica.

Visual learners, this one’s for you.

About the designer

Alice Beltran lives in Long Beach, California with her family, who she loves covering in handknits. She has taught beginning knitting and rarely knits things that don’t require significant design input because she likes making it up. She grew up on Archie comic books. Later on, Len Deighton’s Action Cook Book showed her that comics could be instructive.

Alice recently opened a new shop of beautiful hand-crafted jewelry for handknits, CostumeJewelryHabit. Michelin rating: Worth a Detour.
