Wednesdays March 12, 19 and 26

5:30-7:30pm

Teacher: Kim Hamlin

Trying a new cowl pattern is a great way to boost your knitting skills. Unlike other projects, getting an exact gauge is not crucial for success... meaning… we can dive right into the fun stuff! Even if you don’t NEED a new cowl… it’s always great to have a handmade gift waiting in the wings.

We will be using the Fall Feathers Cowl pattern, by Whitney Harmon. The pattern combines increases and decreases to create the wavy texture. If you don’t know what that means, it’s fine! We’re going to help you! Some may challenge themselves even more by using two colors, or a thinner yarn mixed with mohair.

Newer knitters are welcome to join, but we ask that you already know how to knit, purl and cast on without assistance. You will learn how to knit in the round, increase and decrease stitches, how to make a yarn over, and how to block your project to enhance the lace pattern. All great building blocks for more advanced projects!
