In this class, we will teach you how to create cables without using a cable needle. No more dropped needles, and one less thing to carry around in your knitting bag! This is a tricky technique, but once you learn how, you'll wonder how you ever lived without it. We will also go over reading cable charts and symbols. Students will receive a free copy of Bex's Meriboo Reversible Cable Scarf pattern. | ||

Have you been itching to try your hand at spinning? Do you already know how, but think you could use a few pointers? Join us for our drop spindle class, and make your own yarn! Spindles will be provided for in-class use. Learn this ancient technique for creating home-spun yarn that is uniquely your own. This technique is appropriate for reenactments as far back as civilization has existed: a great skill for SCA members. Spinning can require a costly investment in equipment if you purchase your own spinning wheel. Drop spindle spinning gives you the opportunity to test the waters with spinning and decide before making a large financial investment. Experience with a drop spindle is highly recommended before taking spinning wheel classes in order to teach the techniques of drafting the yarn. | ||

The Fair Isle technique has been around for centuries. Traditionally, this two handed, two color technique involves knitting in the round and using charted patterns, while carrying a different color of yarn in each hand. Basic two-color Fair Isle requires no new techniques beyond the basic knit stitch. Knitters who are comfortable with both English style and Continental style knitting can carry one color with their right hand and one with their left. We will work on a fair isle hat in-class, and discuss how to apply the technique to socks and other projects. | ||
