Sheepy Steeky Coasters
Saturday May 18th, 2-4pm
Michele Lee Bernstein (PDXKnitterati)
Is steeking on your knitting bucket list? Why would you knit something in the round to knit a flat object? How can you keep your cut knitting from falling apart? So many questions, and we have the answers! This coaster class is gentle introduction to crocheted steek reinforcement. You’ll knit the homework, and then we’ll reinforce, cut, and finish in class. Previous crochet experience not required. You should be able to knit / purl, cast on / bind off, and work small circumferences in the round.
Supplies you’ll need. One light-colored and one dark-colored worsted-weight wool yarn, 50 grams/100 yards each, NOT superwash (Blue Sky Fibers Woolstok is a great choice). You want a nice fuzzy/sticky wool for a good first steek experience. 16”US 7/4.5 mm circular needle, or size to get a fabric you like. Four stitch markers. Contrasting color fingering weight yarn for crocheting steek. Crochet hook, size E. Sharp scissors for cutting!
Homework. Knit your coasters prior to class and be ready to steek!
*This is an in-person class. $50, plus supplies.
