**Steeking Workshop: Mastering the Art of Cutting Your Knits!**
Join us for an exciting and hands-on steeking workshop designed for adventurous knitters ready to take their skills to the next level! In this session, you’ll learn how to secure and confidently cut a steek in your colorwork projects. This technique is commonly used to knit colourwork cardigans in the round and then cut open the front; we'll apply the same technique to a mug cosy.
**Prerequisites:** Participants should have some experience with colorwork knitting, as we’ll be building on those foundational skills.
**Preparation:** Before the workshop, please collect your kit and complete your mug cosy. This cosy is a super quick knit project and perfect for your steeking adventure!
During the class, we'll discuss a few different techniques to secure your steek and then we'll cut it! We’ll guide you through picking up stitches for a stylish button band, ensuring you leave with both new skills and a beautiful finished piece.
Bring your enthusiasm and a sense of adventure—let’s cut into creativity together!
