In terms of techniques, very little scares me in knitting. I'm the kind of person to push through until I get it. Most of my knitting challenges are design based these days. And the only design element that intimidates me at the moment is grading sleeve caps for sweaters. Although I won't hold myself to reaching this goal by next year, sometime in the future, I'd like to design a sweater that requires sewn in sleeves. And I'd like to grade it. Until then, we can just all admire the very first sweater I ever knit, the Fireside Sweater. I even sewed in the sleeves.
