Clasped Warp on the Rigid Heddle
Type: Technique
Length: 4 hours
Instructor: Staff
Class Fee: $50
Prerequisite: TBD
Description:
You've heard about clasped weft, now learn about Clasped Warp! This is an exciting technique to expand your warping skills. Clasped warps let us play with more than one color per warp thread and it creates a beautiful unique effect. We will make a sampler using clasps in both the warp and weft. These linked color effects create movement and interest in your fabric.
Participants need to purchase or bring the following supplies when they come to class:
(Please arrive a few minutes early to purchase your materials.)
2 contrasting colored skeins of a DK/Worsted weight yarn 300 Yards of Color A and 200 of color B

Knitting Skills 3
Type: Technique
Length: 2 hours
Instructor: Staff
Class Fee: $30
Prerequisite: Build Your Knitting Skills 2
Description:
In this Build Your Knitting Skills session, we will explore in further depth the language of knitting patterns and abbreviations and how to read them, as well as the importance of reading through patterns and checking for mistakes before you start knitting.
Next you will work a sample swatch with different cable patterns in it, finally learning the secret the more experienced knitters know about cables. The swatch pattern is provided in both written and charted formats, so this is another opportunity to practice working from written patterns and maybe a first chance to work from a chart.
Then you will compare the properties of cables with several other stitch patterns, and see how their differences can affect a larger project. Next, you will learn how to pick up and knit stitches along the edge of your cable swatch.
In the final step, you will explore different ways to block your work, because eventually you will want to try your hand at blocking something wonderful you have knitted.
To practice what youβve learned, we will send you home with a pattern for a cute and cozy hat with a cabled brim.
Participants need to purchase or bring the following supplies when they come to class:
