CLINT (knit) - Sundays from 2:30-4:30pm beginning Feb 23

This artistic shawl is knitted modularly, entirely in garter stitch. The quilt block is worked first, attaching pieces together as you go. Next, the "wings" of the shawl are worked with decorative stripes. An I-cord border on the top and a perpendicular border on the bottom edge complete the shawl. This is a great statement piece. Note - This class is for adventurous knitters who are detail-oriented, willing to count sts regularly, and are not afraid to rip out and reknit to get a section right!
