Sweaters that truly fit – finally within reach.

The Knitter’s Sweater Fitting Bible is the reference book that belongs on every garment knitter’s shelf — a comprehensive, practical guide to understanding fit and making it work for your body.

The book moves logically from the ground up: how to take accurate measurements, how to read and interpret ease, how to choose yarn and fabric with fit in mind, and how different construction methods affect the final shape. The centrepiece is Fixing Fit — a deeply useful chapter that walks through section-by-section alterations for busts, shoulders, sleeves, necklines, and more, with clear instructions that work across patterns.

Whether you’re modifying an existing pattern or designing from scratch, this is the guide that makes the process approachable.

Also by Kim McBrien Evans: Custom Shawls (co-authored with Kate Atherley).
