With Sharon Wallin
Finishing techniques are such an important skill to get your knitting projects done with ease and satisfaction! Once you have the know how everything falls into place.
In the session with Sharon, you will learn:
- Different methods for joining seams
- How to invisibly weave in ends
- How to pick up stitches and knit around a neckline or armhole
- Sewing a button onto knitwear and making a worked loop
- What “blocking” is and why it can transform your knitted item
This is an intermediate knitting class. You should already be able to stitch in knit and purl and be able to cast on and off.
In order to get the most from this class, it would be helpful if you could bring along three knitted stocking stitch squares approximately 15cms (6inches) square. Please leave all loose ends (don’t weave them in!)
Using 4mm needles and double knitting yarn will work well, alternatively, anything else of a similar weight that you have in your stash!
Please bring your 4mm knitting needles and spare DK yarn with you on the day.
The following equipment will be provided but if you would prefer to bring your own, the following items would be helpful:
Scissors; a large eyed needle, pins with a larger head, a button
