This listing is for pre-orders for Kim's new book. The book will be released in mid-August 2026, and we will ship books at that time.
Orders will be shipped from Canada to all countries except the US.
US orders may be shipped from the US if we can arrange a local distributor.
Due to the ongoing nature of the current Canada/U.S. tariff situation we cannot predict how shipping will be affected come August 2026 - whether or not Customs fees will still be required then or what rates (if any) will be in place - so an invoice to cover the cost of any applicable tariffs may be sent nearer to the time of shipping. We will update this message as changes come to light.
The Knitter's Sweater Fitting Bible: The complete practical guide to making sweaters that fit every body
Sweaters that truly fit – finally within reach.
The Knitter's Sweater Fitting Bible is the essential guide for knitters who want to create garments that fit beautifully and feel amazing. Whether you're tired of sweaters that ride up, sag, or just don't sit right, this book will walk you through every step of understanding, adjusting, and designing for perfect fit.
Start by learning to take accurate body measurements and decode the language of “fit” in Measurements and Defining Fit. Demystify shaping and silhouette in Understanding Ease, and get to grips with smart yarn choices and essential swatching techniques in Yarn and Fabric for Successful Sweaters. Build a solid knowledge of construction in Sweater Styles, then dive into Fixing Fit – a reference-packed chapter full of easy-to-follow, section-by-section pattern alterations for busts, shoulders, sleeves, necklines, and more.
When you’re ready to go beyond tweaking existing patterns, turn to Pattern Templates – a modular system that lets you mix and match shapes, necklines, sleeves, and constructions to build completely custom garments in any yarn or gauge.
• Clear explanations of fit principles, ease, and fabric behavior
• Step-by-step alteration techniques for every part of a sweater
• Modular templates that adapt to any yarn, size, or style
• Inclusive design with sample profiles for real makers in real bodies
• The only sweater book you'll need for confidence, creativity, and comfort
Transform how you knit – and how your sweaters fit – for good.
