How do you take an idea from inspiration to finished object? There is a place for patterns, and a place for learning to let go of traditional knitting structures and make creative design decisions on your own. This is what we will explore in this class. We’ll start with a source of inspiration and pull colors, textures, and shape together, leaving you with a plan for designing a personal knitting project. Look at the things you do every day as a knitter: basic structures, stitch patterns, color, and design and learn how to “break” those structures, change them, and see how far you can bend them to your will. Technique Requirements: knit/purl, cast on/bind off, an open mind and a willingness to explore
