Class Details:

This class is 3 of 6 in a series called Casting On and Binding Off for Modern Edges. You do not need to take all six! But as a whole they will give you a great set of skills. We'll get started by making a small swatch trimmed in a slip stitch garter edge. Then we’ll dive into the I-cord bind off, which creates a clean, rounded finish on most stitch patterns. You can easily opt into doing this cast on when designing your own knitwear or making small adjustments to an existing pattern in your library! Technique Requirements: knit/purl; cast on/bind off; increase/decrease; have knit a few accessories

Homework:

None

Supplies for Class:

Bring 2 balls of light-colored worsted weight yarn with a recommended needle size of US 8/5mm or US 9/5.5mm. Avoid black, dark blue, textured, and variegated yarns. A set of US 8/5mm or US 9/5.5mm double pointed needles, 8” long. Scissors. Tapestry needle.
