Easy Reversible Cables with Jolie Elder

Details

Class Title: Easy Reversible Cables

Teacher Name: Jolie A. Elder

Class Length: 3 hours

Class Fee: $50.00

Class Day/Time: Thursday, NOON to 3:00 PM

Class Description:

If you have ever made a cable scarf or blanket, you know how it is only partly satisfying. One side is an array of beautiful cables, and the other side is obviously the wrong side.  What if there was a way to make both sides good without resorting to double knitting? But there is!  This class will cover simple reversible cables as well as ribbles.  Alas!  These tricks don’t work for all types of cables, but we will look at when they can and can’t be applied.  Handout includes pattern for the Legerdemain scarf.

Level: Beginner:  can do basic knitting

Registration necessary, class size limited to 20

Supplies Needed: 

• homework swatch in class yarn (smooth, non-splitting, light or bright or medium color)
• needles to work that yarn in ribbing
• cable needle
• a pin for marking the right side of your work

Materials Fee: None

Homework: Use your favorite cast on for 1 x 1 ribbing, cast on 56 stitches and work a few rows of 1 x 1 ribbing to establish pattern.  Leave yarn attached and stitches live on the needles.  Note: If you are a tight knitter, please go up a couple needle sizes, as this fabric will pull in and you will need some slack to be able to cable comfortably.

A 3.00 electronic administrative fee will be added for all online registration transactions.
