Description

Ready for your next knitting project? Join Rachael as we make the viral Sophie Scarf, designed by Petite Knit. This is a great class for advanced beginner students who feel comfortable with knit and purl stitches, casting off, and working on projects on their own. 

Students will learn: increasing and decreasing stitches (kfb, skp), how to maintain an i-cord edge, discuss blocking techniques, and increase their pattern reading skills. 

Class outline:
  • Lesson One - Begin pattern, learn i-cord edging and increasing. Homework - Complete increase section.
  • Lesson Two - Begin decreases, troubleshoot any errors along the way. Review blocking techniques. Homework  - Finish and block project. 

Ages 18+

Skill Level: Advanced Beginner, but students should be comfortable working simple projects on their own. 

Advanced Beginner classes are designed as “next step” classes to build basic skills. Knitting Students must have taken Knitting 101 and/or be comfortable with casting on, knitting, and purling. 

Class prep: 

  • Purchase and wind yarn.
  • Purchase and print pattern, or have it available to view on an electronic device. The Sophie Scarf, by Petite Knit, available here

Materials (not included, but all classroom materials purchased at Sew To Speak receive a 15% discount):

  • Yarn: There are two size options for this scarf - small and large. Size small requires at least 120 yards of DK weight yarn, while size large requires at least 150 yards of DK weight yarn. 

    We recommend using 1 skein of Farmers Daughter Fibers Juicy DK (273 yards) or Pishkun (255 yards), or 1 to 2 skeins of Bread & Butter Pretzel (130 yards), depending on the size you choose to make. 

    Students also have the option to hold their yarn double, if they'd prefer to try a mohair yarn (such as Farmer's Daughter Fibers Oh Dang! (328 yards)) with a fingering weight yarn (such as Farmer's Daughter Fibers Pear Paw Sock (437 yards)). These yarns held double will be the equivalent of a DK weight yarn, but give a soft halo effect when worked together. 

 

  • Needles - US 4 / 24" circular needles

  • Row Counter (for this project, this is just as important as your yarn and needles)

  • 1 Locking Stitch Marker (for marking the Right Side of your project)

  • Measuring tape, darning needle, scissors.
