Intarsia - Saturday, Sept 12, 12:15-2:15pm
Ready to level up your knitting? Join our class and unlock the magic of intarsia—a technique for creating bold, graphic color blocks without carrying strands across the back of your work. The result is a clean, crisp fabric that's perfect for modern designs. In this class, we'll guide you step-by-step through a swatch. We'll cover everything you need to know to confidently knit beautiful, geometric colorwork: • Reading an intarsia pattern and understanding how it translates to your knitting. • Managing multiple yarns/bobbins of yarn to keep your work tangle-free. • Twisting your yarns to prevent holes and create clean color changes. • Tackling the unique challenges of geometric shapes and sharp angles. This class is ideal for intermediate knitters who are comfortable with basic stitches and are ready to tackle a new challenge. We'll demystify the intarsia process and provide you with the skills to confidently create the fun swatch to get the hang of the technique and prepare you for other beautiful intarsia projects in the future.
