Break it Down: Modular Garter Mug Rugs


About Break it Down: Modular Garter Mug Rugs
Shana Cohen is all about clean, clever knitting details. In this three-session workshop, she’ll introduce tips, tricks, and techniques you can use to add polished, thoughtful details to your own knitting.
Each session will focus on new ideas and practical techniques. Students who register will also receive a PDF pattern for the Modular Mug Rug shown in the photos. The pattern will be distributed before the first class so students can have it ready to use during the workshop.
