Twisted Stitches

Make It Your Own - Patterned Yoke  
Do you love knitting from the top down?  Do you love the idea of designing your own cabled yoke cowl, poncho, or even sweater without having to do the hard part?  Begin by choosing from the variety of textures or cables Norah has designed and practice on a cowl.  Learn how to easily maneuver details like sleeve length, body shape and neck finishing to suit your own likes and quirks with Norah's fill in the blanks template. Bring a variety of knitting needles for knitting swatches along with a cable needle or dpns. 3 hr

Knitting With Linen  
Learn to love linen.  It's a great fiber to wear, but there are a few tricks to knitting with it.  The focus will be on great stitches, variants on dropped stitches, extended stitches and modern bold lace that show shows linen to its best advantage.  Washing, blocking and the importance of swatches are key topics as well. 3 hr
