Saturday April 22, 10 am. First session April 8.
Fee includes instruction only, we have yarn combo kits available for purchase, or we can help you select yarn from the shop!
Our Spring Make-a-long is centered on the Pressed Flowers patterns by Amy Christoffers. She has written designs using this mosaic motif for a hat, cowl, shawl, and cardigan. Mosaic knitting is a way of creating colorwork designs using slipped stitches, so you only ever have to be knitting with one color at a time.
Session A classes focus on either the hat or cowl pattern (you decide which one you would like to work on! The first session will be on learning the mosaic technique, the second session on finishing your hat (top decreases and closure) or cowl (seaming the beginning to the end).
If you pick the hat, we recommend casting on and completing the initial ribbing before class, though it is not required.
Please contact the shop (email rebecca@sundragonartandfiber.com or call 828-877-3550) to reserve your spot. We will need your name, phone number, and email.
For longer events inside when we will be working in close quarters, if needed due to cold or inclement weather, we will ask participants to wear a mask. We can provide masks if you need one. If this policy does not work for you, we understand, and recommend we find a time during the warmer months when we can teach you outside.
When the weather is accommodating classes meet outside on the plaza where ventilation is better and masks are not required.
