Double Knitting Workshop
Two Tuesdays, April 21 and 28, 2020
from 6 to 8:30 pm each night. Taught by
Cheryl Ann of CAWcreations
At PEI Crafts Council 98 Water Street, Charlottetown, PE
Have you ever wondered how people create knit projects, where both sides appear finished?
Double knitting creates a two layered fabric at the same time. This workshop will teach participants how to create a two-colour coaster.
Night one we will talk about the history of double knitting. Choose the chart and discuss how to read a chart. Class will end with casting on the coaster.
The following week, participants will lead with their questions, we will finish the squares and cast off.
Materials needed for the class:
Two different colours of yarn in the same weight and fibre
I am using Bernat Handicrafter Cotton in kits (worsted weight)
5 mm needles (straight or dpns are fine)
1 button with two holes that yarn can fit through.
Cost:
$20 PEICC Member
$30 Non Member
A materials kit can be purchased from CAWcreations for the class $10.
