Lace Knitting: Lydian Cowl
Instructor: Jennifer Hallan
This is an advanced beginner class. Students should be comfortable casting on, knitting in the round, and knitting twisted rib (knitting through the back loop). We'll teach the rest!
In this two session class, you'll learn the ins and outs of lace knitting, including lace increases and decreases, yarn overs, how to read a lace chart and how to identify and fix basic mistakes in lace knitting. Together we'll knit the Lydian Cowl by Dee O'Keefe. You'll have a (mostly) completed cowl by the end of the second session and guidelines for picking out your next lace project!
Materials needed:
-
Lydian Cowl by Dee O'Keefe (purchase on Ravelry)
- 1 skein Malabrigo Rios or 100g of worsted weight yarn
- 16" US 7 needles or needles to obtain gauge
Before the start of class: Buy supplies, cast on, and knit twisted rib (1-2 hours)
