This 2-hour workshop is focused on building your trouble-shooting skill set. Together we will break down the way that knit fabric is constructed so that students will begin to read their knitting and diagnose their own mistakes. Then we’ll practice a variety of methods to fix some of the most common problems knitters run into.
Materials you will need to bring to class :
-
Homework: THIS IS A MUST HAVE TO START CLASS- knit a 4" x 4" stockinette square on US 8 needles using worsted weight yarn, live on needles!!
- Fingering weight yarn
- A darning needle
- A small crochet hook or fix-it tool
Students are welcome to bring a project that has stalled and Hadley will help you in applying what you’ve just learned after the formal workshop is complete.
We ask that you purchase materials for the class from our shop. You will receive a 10% discount on your materials for class as well as on purchases made the day of class.
