Intro to Stranded Colorwork Knitting w/ Sarah

Learn to knit stranded colorwork while making a custom Doodle Cowl!

Using Pacific Knit Co. customizable motifs, each student will choose which colorwork motifs and colors to use to make something truly unique. If that sounds overwhelming you can simplify your project by using just 2 colors and choosing your motifs at random! 

Please note that this is not a beginner class. 

Ages 18+

Skill Level: Intermediate 

Intermediate level classes are suited for makers who have taken 2-3 Advanced Beginner classes in their craft, and/or have made several projects on their own, and are feeling independent in their skills. Knitting students must be comfortable with basic stitches within their craft (knitting and purling), reading simple patterns, and troubleshooting simple mistakes.

Class prep:

• Before class students should buy the necessary supplies and wind their yarn into cakes.
