Mosaic knitting is a simple but effective colorwork technique that utilizes one color at a time to create contrasting color geometric shapes. The pattern are created by the use of slip stitches - no stranding to worry about! The stitch patterns can be knit flat or in the round using stockinette stitch, garter or a combination of both. You will knit a sampler of stitches in class as you learn to work the patterns and read the charts. No previous experience with knitting with colors is necessary ! Leave the workshop with a pattern for a pair of hand warmers.
Prerequisite: Open to all who can knit and purl. Must be willing to learn how to knit from a chart.
Skill Level Required: Intermediate
Homework: None

A material fee of $5 will be collected by the instructor TBD. It includes a folder, handouts, and pattern.
Students must bring: Please bring approximately 100 yards each of two smooth worsted weight yarn (wool or wool-blend is recommended) - choose colors that are highly contrasting so the pattern shows well, a pair of two 10" single-pointed or a 24" circular (we will be knitting a flat piece) size, US 7(4.5mm) needles, scissors, and a pen for notes.
We also suggest bringing a battery operated light should you need additional lighting.
