Fixing Your Mistakes

2:30-4:00 pm

Join Amanda to learn some skills for fixing the inevitable mistakes we all encounter in our knitting.  You'll learn to tink back individual stitches, insert afterthought lifelines, rip back multiple rows and put stitches back on the needles, pick up dropped stitches, change a knit to a purl or vice versa.  If there is time and interest, Amanda will demonstrate how to drop a group of stitches to reknit a section (very useful with lace or cables). 

Please bring 5"x5" swatch knit in stockinette stitch with worsted weight yarn in a light, solid color on size 7 or 8 needles.  Leave your stitches on the needles.  Please also bring a crochet hook (D, E or F), a long circular needle in a small size (a US 1 or 2 is great, but any needle smaller than a 7 will do) a tapestry needle and a small amount of contrasting yarn.
