Class Details:
This class is where your fear of Fair Isle finally fades away. We will cover the basic history and little-known facts and learn exercises to help with dexterity. We will start with a fun art and color exercise (colored pencils and graph paper included) where we will draw our own patterns with 2 colors and 3 colors and knit away! Mistakes are allowed, and shoulder massages are included. Yep, this class has it all!
Technique Requirements: Knit/purl; cast on/bind off; working in the round
Homework:
With US 8/5mm 16" circular needle and any color worsted-weight yarn, CO 100 stitches. Join to work in the round, taking care not to twist stitches. Work k2, p2 rib for 2"/5cm. Leave project on needles and bring to class as is.
Supplies for Class:
Scissors, scotch tape, and red wine (if you stress out at the thought of colorwork!).
