Once you can knit and purl you will want to be able to add more interest to your knitting? This course will look at techniques that add shape and interest to your knitting and can turn a plain piece of knitting into something that makes people go wow. We will make a series of squares looking at increasing and decreasing, lace, cables and using more than one colour. They may sound scary but the basics are easier than you think. Once you master the basics, these techniques follow on. Students will need to bring: yarn (dk or 8ply for preference) in a couple of contrasting colours, a pair of 4mm needles (or size to suit yarn) cable needle (a short double pointed needle capable of holding a few stitches) The cable needle won't be needed for the first week.
