Knitted Lace Workshop w/ Lisa Daehlin
Create a vision in lace as if an angel’s wings draped about your shoulders. Using the elegant technique of yarn-over increases paired with decreases, learn to knit lace in a triangular shape.
The class begins with how to make a garter stitch tab as the cast-on at the nape of the neck and covers the skills (including various ways to incorporate beads) needed to work down to the shaping of the bound-off edge. Practice chart reading by working on a stitch pattern which could be incorporated into the shaping of your triangular shawl.
PREREQUISITE – know how to cast on, knit, purl, bind off.
SUPPLIES – knitting needles (size 7 or 8, straight or circular), one ball of dk or worsted weight yarn (light colored and smooth), movable stitch markers.
