We are very excited to announce that Sharon Brant of Rowan, a knitwear designer, author and costumer who has worked on such films as Harry Potter, Elizabeth and Atonement will be leading a workshop on professional finishing techniques at our store!
In this three hour workshop Sharon will use her recently published book to help you through a whole series of tips and techniques that will give your knitting that professional look and finish.
The day is aimed to show the techniques of working with colour, texture and the following techniques will be covered:
• Choosing the best method to cast on
• The importance of tension and how to correct it
• Working with Colour (Intarsia and fairisle)
• Textures (Lace, Cables and bobbles)
• Finishing techniques, (seams and picking up stitches)
• Plus many more tips that will make people ask “where did you get your sweater?” rather than “did you make that yourself?”
