Class Details:

Everything in your stash is very welcome on this class! It is possible that we have leftovers from previous projects, some skeins found on a thrift store, or maybe a gift from a friend! We would love it if you bring to the class different yarn weights with all kinds of fiber contents, because in this creative class we will renew the way we look at those yarns, mixing colors, fibers, textures creating macro motifs and opening a whole new world of possibilities for our stash.

Concepts covered in class:
- Focus on giving info and tools to encourage the knitters to upcycle what they already have in stash; a playful way to be confident to explore creativity;
- Using a few macro motifs as a template, the participants will be invited to approach colors, textures and fibers in a more freely way.
- The more crazy or tacky the yarn, the better!

Homework:

None

Supplies for Class:

A variety of yarns and leftovers from your own stash in different colors, fiber content, weight and textures; a range of knitting needles from your own stash that works with your yarn selection (suggestion from US 3 to US 10); stitch markers; paper and pencil for notes.
