For this Thursday's knitting class, we'll be learning to knit with the Magic Loop. So for anyone who doesn't really care for double points, this is great! I've used this method now for hats, and a pair of thrummed mittens. I don't know why it's taken me so long to learn this technique for circular knitting. I guess it looked a little off-putting, but it's really very simple.
We'll also be learning to knit cables, carry two colors, and make I-cords.
So for Thursday night's class, you'll need to bring a cable needle, two colors of yarn (preferably a non-fuzzy yarn, so you can see your stitches clearly), a circular needle with at least a 32-inch cable, and a set of double-point needles. If you don't have any of these, we have them at the store, and any supplies purchased for a class is 10% off.
