DIFFICULTY LEVELS:

1 ★ – BEGINNER
The patterns in this category are written for absolute beginners. They are first project friendly.

2 ★★ – EXPERIENCED BEGINNER
The patterns in this category are slightly more complicated but still easy to take on. These patterns are made for knitters that have completed a project before and can confidently read a pattern. They are also comfortable reading abbreviations. I always list the abbreviations and their meanings on the last page of my patterns.

3 ★★★ – INTERMEDIATE
You can confidently take on patterns in this category if you have experience with and feel confident using basic knitting techniques. These patterns will use more advanced techniques in addition to basic ones. These techniques will be listed on the first page of the pattern. These patterns may require you to read simpler charts, use the more advanced cast-on and bind-off techniques, short rows, knit with more than one colour at a time and so on.

4 ★★★★ – EXPERIENCED INTERMEDIATE
These patterns are written for an experienced knitter. You may need to keep track of multiple things happening simultaneously.

5 ★★★★★ – ADVANCED
The patterns in this category are written for a seasoned knitter who is confident using most advanced techniques.
