Stranded Knitting 101: Laying the Foundation for Successful Colorwork Knitting
Teacher: Kathy Naumann
Cost: $65
When: Sunday, October 1, 10:00–1:00pm
Description: Give us three hours of your time, and we’ll give you a skill that promises to take your knitting to the next level! In this class you’ll learn how to manage two strands of yarn simultaneously and how to read a colorwork chart. Each participant will be working on a hat pattern that has been mindfully written to produce successful stranded knitting beginners in just one class. (Note: you’ll be making a baby-sized hat during the class, and you’ll have enough yarn left over to make another baby- or adult-sized hat.)
Prerequisites: This class will focus on yarn management. Participants should have basic knowledge of long-tail cast on, knitting in the round, and independently closing a hat on double-pointed needles. There will be no focus given to hat knitting skills, although the instructor will be happy to answer any questions as time permits.
Homework: None
Min/max number of participants: 4/10
Materials to bring along:
- 2 skeins of Lang Cashmerino, in contrasting colors, purchased from Spun (this will make 2 hats)
- Size US4 & US5 16” circular needles
- Size US5 double-pointed needles
- 10 matching ring-style stitch markers
- 1 unique stitch marker
- Tapestry needle
