-New complex stitches & techniques (e.g., shell stitch, puff/bobble stitch; front & back post ribbing)
-Seamless color change (mid project)
-Mastering increasing and decreasing
-How to follow a chart pattern
-Take on bigger projects with confidence
We will take all the beginner knowledge you’ve learned and introduce some more complicated
techniques to take your skills to the next level.
The first class we will make clover granny squares, and from there we will take our new skills and learn
how to draft a hexagon granny sweater or other large project of your choosing.
Beginner skills are required for this class

squares)
-multiple size hooks (or hook size to match your yarn choice)
