Ever wondered what Double Knitting is? Come have fun and explore this reversible, doubly-warm technique. Learn how to cast on in two colors, invisibly carry your yarn, knit, increase, decrease, fix mistakes and more in double knitting. We'll try out the techniques, then students can choose a project (or two) to work on that incorporate these techniques.
For the first class, bring some US7 needles (preferably circular or double-pointed and 2 or more colors of worsted yarn to practice techniques. A $5 fee is payable to the instructor the first night of class.
