Description: Pull together 150-200 yards of worsted weight yarn to make a pair of beautiful color work fingerless mitts in class. We will work on the corrugated rib, the Latvian braid and the two-handed color work technique during class. Susan provides lots of large and small group demonstrations and individual attention during class. Students are walked through skills and everyone succeeds. Students are provided the recipe for the mitts but you get to create your own version. Lots of options and charts and examples will be shared in class to help you pick and choose your own mitt adventure! You will leave a much more confident colorwork knitter.
