Want to knit faster? Are you ready to tackle colour work? Knitting continental style – with the yarn in your left hand rather than right – is the key to speed, and also helps you enormously with colorwork. It’s also useful for knitters who want to manage and minimize hand-strain. We’ll also demonstrate a magical technique for working ribbing and seed stitch without moving the yarn.
Skill Level: Late beginner – must be comfortable with knit, purl, casting on and off
Materials Required: Scrap medium-weight yarn (included in fee) and 4.5mm/US #7 needles (straight or circular).
