In this episode of the SweetGeorgia Show, Felicia welcomes back internationally renowned knitting instructor and designer Patty Lyons. Since Patty’s first appearance on the show in 2017, so much has changed. She has gone on to write multiple books, including her upcoming title, Knitting ER, publishing in October 2026. Together, Felicia and Patty dive into their shared love of knitting, the importance of building and supporting community, and the joy of truly understanding how knitting works.
Patty Lyons is a beloved knitting teacher and designer. She is the author of Knitting Bag of Tricks and its companion workbook, and she writes in-depth and insightful posts for Modern Knitting. She also has a brand new book, Knitting ER: A Step-by-Step Guide to Fixing Your Knits Before and After Bind-Off, publishing in October 2026.
