About this event

This class is designed to elevate your skills and add a new dimension to your creations.

In this immersive workshop, you'll learn the art of double knitting—a technique that allows you to craft reversible fabric with contrasting colors on each side. Casey will guide you through the fundamentals, from choosing the perfect color palette to mastering the techniques that bring your double-knit projects to life. Add a new dimension to your knitting toolbox!

Yarn is included in the cost, you just need to bring a 4-5mm needle. Gauge isn't critical, but I recommend choosing a needle slightly smaller than you would typically use for Aran weight yarn.
