Mini How to Knit Colorwork Online Class with Pattern

$20.00

Want help learning how to knit colorwork? This mini class can help! The class is online and self guided, with videos, PDF how to, and the Chevron Wrist Warmers Pattern.

Who this class is for: If you just need a push or a little bit of help to start knitting colorwork, this is a great class for you.  If you don't have time or can't show up to take a full class- usually 4+ hours over 2 days a week apart, online classes are perfect for you since you can work at your own pace. 

This class is not for: This class is not for people who have never decreased, followed a pattern, or are going to need a lot of help (since the class is online and I can't help you in person).

What is included in the class:

Chevron Wrist Warmers Pattern. The wrist warmers are knit from the top down, starting at the ribbing and colorwork on top, casting on and knitting the thumb gusset, and knitting the bottom cuff. Thumb ribbing is picked up and knit at the end. 

How to Knit Colorwork PDF walks you through the pattern step by step in 8 pages. Videos are noted in the PDF where they fit in with the directions. Included directions: 
  • How to choose the yarn, casting on, joining, working the colorwork, casting on and knitting the thumb, picking up thumb stitches, and fixing mistakes.

15+ minutes of video which includes all of the important how to's. Videos include: 
  • Casting on, dividing the stitches, making sure your stitches aren't twisted as you start to work in the round.
  • Working colorwork- knitting with both hands or one hand, reading the charts
  • Casting on for the thumb, decreasing for the thumb gusset
  • Picking up thumb stitches
  • Weaving in ends and fixing mistakes
Sample video for the class- this is the first video of the class.
