If you have mastered the beginning skills of knitting, and are ready for a little bit more, this workshop is for you!
This workshop will be an in-depth look at skills used in most lace knitting projects and participants will have plenty of opportunity to practice each skill.
Once the beginning lace skills are practiced, participants will begin to construct their own lace stole or scarf from the pattern. Participants will also be confident in their skills enough to create other projects on their own.
In Part 1 of this workshop, beginning lace techniques will be taught and exampled. Participants will practice these lace techniques, and begin creating a practice pattern swatch.
Participants will also practice reading a pattern, and learn how to follow a pattern from a chart.
In Part 2 of this workshop, participants will have assistance trouble shooting problems. Then the sewn bind off will be demonstrated, and participants will block their practice swatch.
The session will end with participants beginning to cast on for their desired stole or scarf.
This workshop features an original design created by Angela Childress, “Diamonds Among Seeds”.
