How to Confidently Design Multi-Size Sweater Patterns

“I am so thankful to have found Sweater Design School. The program is easy to follow and well-structured and provides an amazing online community of like-minded knitters that have become friends and colleagues. Clare's vast experience is especially helpful, and the modules were structured in a way that allowed me to plan and execute my projects at my own pace. I feel much more confident in designing than I would have had I not gone through the program. I can't imagine where I would be without this course!”

“Since joining Sweater Design School, I have designed and graded several items, and although I haven't published anything yet, my confidence is growing all the time. What I liked best about the course was how thorough the videos were and the encouragement I got from the student community. Through Sweater Design School, I've also made some great friends, found helpful resources for my design questions, and obtained a practical structure to work within, which helps fuel my creativity. I definitely recommend Sweater Design School to anyone interested in learning to grade sweater designs. It's great for beginners who might be intimidated by spreadsheets; the level of detail on using them was very helpful. If there's one thing to know before taking Sweater Design School, it's that you should commit enough time to really get the most out of it - consistency is key! The course itself is professionally put together - it covers the arc from design ideas to publishing and provides both encouragement and concrete information along the way.”

"Before joining Sweater Design School, I was worried that I wouldn't be clever enough to understand it, but it is incredibly thorough in terms of content and the level of support you provide. Participants can always reach help as needed."

“Since joining Sweater Design School, I have released five patterns in 8 months. I loved the course, and it really improved my Excel skills. I would definitely recommend Sweater Design School, especially to those who are not confident enough about designing their own patterns. It takes time and commitment, but the results are worth it!”

“I recently retired, so the timing was perfect for enrolling in Sweater Design School. Since enrolling, I have designed two jumpers that are either with the tech editor or being test-knit. I have also created my own spreadsheet for an unusual construction which the course gave me the confidence to do. Sweater Design School was very thorough and covered everything needed to make a good design. If anyone is considering enrolling, I'd highly recommend it. It's a process that takes commitment but is worth it for the results you can achieve.”

“Before the course, I had hesitations about the cost and whether or not I could achieve what I wanted to do, but after going through the modules and utilising the Q&As, I was able to design my very first sweater! The best part about Sweater Design School is that it’s not just classes; there’s a great community of new designers to help each other out. Clare is incredibly supportive and answers all kinds of questions. I highly recommend Sweater Design School to anyone looking for detailed instructions on how to design and knit their own patterns.”

“Sweater Design School has been fantastic. Each module filled me with excitement. I am certainly not someone who enjoys working with spreadsheets, but the lessons for pattern grading were delivered in a way that has made me a fan. I still smile at seeing the grading spreadsheet after thinking there was no way I could do it. Clare takes you through it one step at a time, and by the end of those lessons, I was astounded at how easy you made it for me. Something no one else has ever been able to do! Since taking the course, I have been able to create knitting patterns for myself as well as ones for sale. From the beginning, I was given fantastic help and support from Clare. The course was very well structured and delivered in easy-to-follow steps. It has really boosted my confidence in my skills, and I highly recommend this course to anyone wanting to take their design skills to the next level.”

“For someone like me with no design background, it's no exaggeration to say that this course saved me years of trying to design, grade and publish a sweater using books and Google searches! I now have solid confidence in the process.”
