Winterview Scarf Workshop with Cecelia Campochiaro - January 17th

$75.00

Saturday, January 17th, from 2:00 pm to 5:00 pm

Join Cecelia Campochiaro, the author of Reversible Knitting, Sequence Knitting, and Making Marls, for a project-based class to make the Winterview Scarf or Shawl. Winterview uses sequence knitting to create a beautifully textured triangle, and a woven slip stitch pattern to create the decorative edging. In class, we’ll discuss how to work the pattern, yarn quantities, and ideal yarn characteristics so you will be ready to cast on right after class.

You will receive the pattern as a part of class.

level: advanced beginners and beyond. Students must be able to cast on, bind off, knit, purl, increase and decrease without help and should be able to read their knitting. If you can make a 4x4 ribbing swatch without laddering, you will be fine.

supplies:

their basic knitting kit
2 balls of solid-color yarn and appropriate needles for swatching. One ball is for the main color should be fingering, sport or DK. The other ball is for the contrasting color and only a few yards are needed; it can be the same weight or a lighter weight than the main yarn.

note: To make a Winterview, the yarn quantity has a wide range. It can be one-skein wonder using 400-450 yards of fingering, or a bigger shawl on 700-900 yards of fingering. It works best with light weight (e.g. fingering weight) and drapey fibers. The sample is worked in an alpaca silk blend. Regardless of size, a small ball, fewer than 20 yards, of contrasting color is needed. This can be the same weight as the main color or lighter weight.

homework: none
