Snip snip snip! Terrified about cutting up your knitting? You won't be after taking this class! Get your homework done and be ready for some fun!
Description Cutting your knitting may seem the stuff of nightmares, but when you're in a controlled environment and following a few simple steps, it's a tool that makes stranded knitting a dream. In this workshop you'll face your fears while learning the skills required to steek knitted fabric, and you'll explore the necessary steps to create a beautifully finished edge. Once you've learned a few ways to divide the fabric, you'll continue the adventure by learning how to install a zipper by hand. Supplies Worsted weight, solid color non-superwash wool (such as HiKoo® Simpliworsted) in the main color of your swatch, a second partial ball in a color that compliments/contrasts with the swatches worked, 12" (or longer) separating zipper, 12" x 12" piece of cotton fabric (for lining), sewing thread (in a color that matches zipper), sewing needle, and the usual knitting bag filled with treasures.
