What's better than a finished object? A fascinatingly-finished object! Learn to take your knits to the next level with these arresting embroidery finishes.
No harder than weaving in ends, but so much more satisfying — in this class you'll learn and practice multiple embroidery finishes to elevate your hand-knits or even enliven store-bought knits. We'll explore how the geometry of knitting and the geometry of embroidery intersect to elevate existing stitchwork and highlight knitted motifs, beginning with basic stitches and advancing on to more complex combinations.
Simple to execute but stunning to see, you'll come away from this class with boundless ideas for really finishing off your finished knits (or even store-bought knits!) by adding amazing touches to borders, hems, cuffs, or even entire pieces.
Homework: Knit and bind off a swatch using a smooth, light-colored, worsted-weight yarn in stockinette stitch, knit flat, that is approximately 6x6". Alternatively, you may bring a similarly-sized piece of store-bought or machine-knitting, as long as the color is light enough to see well and the stitches are large (5 or fewer stitches to the inch).
Supplies: Your homework swatch, scraps of smooth yarn in a similar weight in various contrasting colors that are at least 4 yards long (or still on the ball), a tapestry needle big enough to work with your yarn scraps, a crochet hook in the 3.5mm to 4.5 mm range, scissors.
Level: Any knitting level; non-knitters are also welcome.
You will receive the class recording link and handout immediately upon purchasing the class, both on the website and in your email inbox. If you don't see these in your email inbox, please check your spam filter and then reach out to me at deviousknitter@gmail.com.
