Class Details:
This class will find us each knitting different fair isle pattern motifs on a wristlet, while all using the same six colors. In two hours of swift knitting our class will just scratch the tip of the iceberg of color variation that can be achieved using the same colors in different ways. A class format is the best way of instantly recognizing that the "interaction of color" is what makes a successful fair isle garment. Technique Requirements: Be comfortable knitting small diameter pieces in the round. Firm grasp of two color stranded colorwork
Homework:
None
Supplies for Class:
Yarn: Kit Required: Six colors of 100% Shetland yarn available for purchase in class. Needles & Notions: US size 3 (3.25mm) dpns or your preferred needles for working small diameter pieces in the round; tapestry needle; scissors; stitch markers. Colored pencils and eraser, if desired.
