Class Details:

Short rows are a fun and simple technique for shaping your knitting that allows you to knit a gentle curve or slope by adding extra length of fabric to parts of your knitting. Short rows can be used for almost any shaping: the shoulders of sweaters, the heels of socks, custom-fitting the bust area, or perhaps ad a gentle curve to the bottom of a sweater.

In this workshop we take a look how to use short rows in more untraditional places too; to shape a shawl, add a wedge, or even instead of intarsia! During this workshop you will learn:
- Different types of short rows
- How to use short rows for fit
- How to use short rows for shape
- Short rows in different stitch patterns and how to choose the best technique
