Reading Charted Knitting Patterns (Intermediate) with Deborah Burger
September 17, 2022 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm
This class will teach you to understand and follow knitting charts for cables, lace, and knit-purl patterns. In 2 hours, we will learn to read and actually knit a sampler from these 3 common types of knitting charts. The project is a sampler, but in the class we talk about how to continue it until it’s a scarf.
You will need: 25-50 yds of worsted weight yarn, straight or circular #8 needles, a cable needle if you have one (loaners will be available), and stitch markers. Before class, cast on 20 stitches and knit four rows.
Maximum Class Size: 8
