Class Details:
We’ll begin with learning how to make an I-cord on double pointed needles. Then we’ll dive into picking up stitches along the I-cord we just made to create live stitches. This simple rounded edge accents all kinds of stitch patterns so beautifully and helps to keep stockinette stitch from curling. Create a clean, tidy cast on in just a few steps! Technique Requirements: knit/purl; cast on/bind off; working in the round; have knit a few accessories; basic finishing techniques
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.
