About the event
Learn to knit intarsia with Deirdre! The intarsia pattern is a knitting technique where yarns are switched and knitted within the fabric. This allows for the incorporation of large color patterns or logos into the knit.
This is a 2-session class. Sign up for the first session on 7/25 and you will be registered for the 8/1 class automatically.
In this class you will learn the basics of intarsia while knitting a small swatch and embellishing with embroidery... These are the training wheels you'll need if you want to make a larger project like the Florality Sweater or this great cat tote bag ;) https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/intarsia-funny-cat-tote-bag
Mini skeins of DK will be provided. You'll need to bring size 5 or 6 needles (you'll be working flat, so any size cable is OK).
The first session will teach you the intarsia technique, and the second class will address some cool embroidery techniques…
