8 ways to sew knit necklines (none of them a neckband) #105

Everyone knows the neckband. It’s the default option for finishing knit tops. But surely there must be more ways? Perhaps even better ones?

In this episode, Malena and Johanna step away from the most common knit neckline finish and explore eight alternative methods, the ones that don’t get as much attention, but are equally as good, if not better, in some circumstances.

If you’ve ever felt stuck using the same neckline over and over, or wondered why it doesn’t quite sit the way you want, this episode will give you more options and a better sense of when to use them.
