Knitting Short Rows: A Brief Introduction to Different Methods with Marin Melchior (MarinJaKnits) (Sunday 12-3)

The class will be organized to teach you and have you practice a couple of the most popular short row techniques.
You will work on a small swatch (or sample) starting with a more basic, potentially familiar method & move into lesser known techniques. Many people may be competent in one of these, but by showing you others and addressing when I like to use them may give you a better handle on what is best for you! The goal is to give you a basic over view of several popular techniques and a chance to practice them. You will produce a small piece that can be used as a sample or you may wish to reproduce multiples as quilt squares or find another creative use.
