Stranded Colorwork Knitting – Deep Dive
About Stranded Colorwork Knitting – Deep Dive
The class is designed for the knitter who has found the joys of stranded colorwork knitting, but after working stranded and Fair Isle patterns, still have some questions. How long do you leave the tails? Is there a way around weaving in all of those ends? Can I untangle the ever-twisting yarns? What is yarn dominance? How do I get rid of long floats in the back? This class will answer these questions and more using a discussion format that covers over 20 topics related to stranded colorwork knitting. Students should bring yarn and needles to help further explore the solutions to these deep dive questions.
