Knitter Spotlight: Nicole's Creative Pattern Adaptation

  • March 4, 2024

Inspired by the Rain Chain Machine Knit-able, fellow knitter, Nicole, used the Knit it Now Misses Sideways pattern and the Connect the dots stitch pattern for her SUCCESS!

Nicole knit her version
  • 2/8 wool
  • Brother machine
  • Gauge = 27/37
  • The purl side for the public side.


Nicole wanted the stitch pattern to align from the top of the sleeve to the cuff as shown in the original pattern.

We updated the pattern to include sideways knit sleeves.
With top-down sleeves, the stripe design would have been around the arms. Knitting the sleeves sideways aligned the stripes the way she wanted.



Nicole's "Rain Chain"

Congrats Nicole!

Knit it Now Machine Knit-Ables are curated hand knitting patterns that can be converted to machine knitting either by "translating" the original pattern or substituting Knit it Now patterns to use with YOUR machine and YOUR choice of yarn.

    Beautiful! It makes me want to try it, I just thought it was too much manipulation and time consuming, but it looks so good.
