Learn Stranded (fair isle) Knitting
July 12 - 15, 2021
This 3-day, 2 night retreat will be all about stranded knitting. We will begin on Monday morning at 10 am. and end on Wednesday afternoon at 4:00 pm., allowing for 3 full days of instruction - without sacrificing a summer family weekend! Best of all, you will learn:
German Twisted Cast On
Corrugated Ribbing (2 color)
Holding your yarn in both hands
Catching Floats
Determining Dominant Color(s)
Tips for achieving correct tension
Adding Latvian Braid
Optional project: learn to steek
You can select from several different patterns (we will have hat, cowl and mitt choices) using two, three or more colors of yarn. Start at the level you feel most comfortable with, or challenge yourself with something a little more complex. We'll supply plenty of guidance, instruction, advice and support!
The cost of this workshop is just $285. (You will also have the option of including an additional night at Blue Mountain (Wednesday, July 29) for just $55 - breakfast on Thursday morning is included.)
