Finishing
Class Details:
Learn to give your hand knits a professional finish. This class will cover all the topics needed to make beautiful finished projects, including bind-offs, seaming, blocking, grafting, and weaving in ends. We’ll practice each technique in class and you’ll go home with a photo tutorial handbook to guide you in future projects. You worked hard on that project; finish it flawlessly!
Technique Requirements: Knit/purl; cast on/bind off; increase/decrease
Homework:
Bring 10 small Stockinette swatches to class, all worked in the same yarn. I recommend DK- or worsted-weight yarn so your stitches are large and easy to see while practicing new techniques. For 6 of the swatches, don't bind off, but instead place the live stitches on holders or waste yarn. The other 4 should be bound off as usual, but there's no need to weave in your ends. Each swatch should be about 2 inches square.
