Course Details:

Often with hand knitted or crocheted garments it can be the finishing off that can let you down. In this workshop, you will learn how to achieve that professional look to your knitted garments. On the day we will work through tried and tested increasing and decreasing methods, picking up stitches and creating button holes and button bands.

We will also look at the various mattress stitch methods and where and when to use them to get the best results and how and when to block. On the day you will be asked to bring a selection of pre knitted swatches with you to sew together.
