Color Techniques II Wk 3

A big thank you to Linda L. for taking the following class notes below in Irene's absence.

Welcome to Linda Martinez, a new student!

Show & Tell
We had lots of knitting projects to share & hopefully will be brought back for photos for the blog when Irene returns.

Flower Cards
Linda suggested that we might want to check on making up note cards from our knitted flowers challenge project for ourselves and to sell.

Shadow Knitting
Linda demonstrated the technique of shadow knitting. Pat shared a book on SHADOW KNITTING by Vivian Hoxbro.

Next week Karen, Teri, & Vicki will give a demo on fusing fabric to our knitting projects to create a lining.

Linda will check on the possibility of ordering sz 8 circular needles in 11” for the Helix knitting.

Stitches West
Bus trip: There are about 2 spaces left on the bus. Everyone must pay the $45 by next week. Linda is taking donations for door prizes for the bus ride. Some nice things have been donated.

For the knitting project on the bus trip, you will need 1 skein of ww yarn and size 8 double point needles in solid or variegated, but no novelty yarn. Also, you will need a stitch marker, a tape measure, & a row counter.

Reminder
Nola’s ugly hats project is due 1st session in March.

Happy knitting!
