Colour & Stitch Exploration
Join us to explore the wonderful world of colour and texture as we knit one of Stephen West's extraordinary shawls. The first class will focus on creating a colour story and selecting yarns to make your colour story come to life. In the remaining sessions we'll explore a variety of techniques depending on your chosen project: short rows, slip stitches and more to combine colour in new and interesting ways. Knit your choice of the Fantastitch, Slipstravaganza, or Winter Lights shawl patterns.
