Understanding Short Rows Knitting Class
Learn how to knit short rows in this fun workshop.
In this class, you'll learn how to knit short rows using two common techniques - German Short Rows and Wrap & Turn Short Rows.
Short rows are created by working smaller sections across a row, adding depth and curves. This shaping is commonly found in jumpers and other garments, providing a better fit. Another classic example of short rows is a knitted heel.
Please note: A small amount of homework before the class is required. You'll practise each technique on a small swatch - you will need to arrive with a few rows knitted on your swatch for the start of the class. You'll be emailed instructions on the type of swatch to knit upon booking.
A small selection of teas are available, provided complimentarily. Please feel free to bring a snack for yourself or grab a coffee before arriving!
When: Friday, 16th of June 10:30am - 12:30pm.
Please arrive at least 15 minutes prior to the start of the class.
