Grid Gambit Class with Samantha Guerin!
Learn Mosaic Knitting with guest instructor and designer Samantha Guerin!
Saturday, May 17th 11AM-1PM
While mosaic stitch motifs may look complicated, they are actually quite a simple technique- worked using only one color at a time. In this class, we’ll cast on the Grid Gambit Cowl, work polished I-cord edges, learn how to manage yarn when working with two colors, get comfortable reading a charted mosaic pattern and confidently work the first section of this fun-to-knit accessory. You’ll leave with an understanding of how the cowl is shaped and tips for blocking and seaming your Grid Gambit for a perfect finish.
