For those who have mastered basic knitting techniques and are ready to expand their skills. Patterns may introduce slightly more complex techniques and patterns, such as shaping, increasing, decreasing or working multiple colors or easy lace patterns.

Patterns will help knitters gain confidence and experience with new techniques while still working within a manageable level of difficulty.
