Oopsie Fixes



Using several swatches you will make prior to class, we will learn and practice techniques to help you correct those oopsies without having to start over on your project.

Techniques we will be working on:

  • Picking up dropped stitches

  • Correcting a skipped stitch

  • Changing knits to purls and purls to knits

  • Correcting mis-crossed cables

  • Create an after-thought yarn over

  • Feel free to bring in ideas or problems you have faced to class 

Supplies

  • A skein of a smooth DK or worsted weight wool yarn. A light color will be easier to work with and see your stitches (examples: Plymouth SW Worsted, Hikoo Simpliworsted, Cascade 220)

  • Knitting needles (circular or straight) appropriate for your yarn to work your swatch; most likely a US size 7, 8, or 9

  • 2-3 DPNs (double pointed needles) appropriate for your yarn; can be 1-2 sizes smaller than your working needle 

  • Cable needle

  • Needle stoppers

  • A stitch fixer tool or crochet hook

  • 4 locking stitch markers

Homework:
There will be homework to finish and bring to class. The Homework will be emailed to participants a week prior to class. To get the most out of this class, it is important that you come to class prepared with the supplies listed and your finished swatches.
