This is an in-store only class at ArkansasYarnCo on Saturday, February 8th from 10:30 am - 2:30 pm. This class will take a quick 30 min. lunch break, so we recommend bringing a snack or there is a coffee shop down the block from us with amazing sandwiches.
Unlock the magic of shaping in your knitting with our "Mastering Short Rows" workshop! Short rows are a powerful technique used to add subtle curves, create depth, and enhance fit, making them essential for projects like sweaters, shawls, and more. In this class, you will learn the fundamentals of short rows, how to execute them seamlessly, and explore several different methods. Whether you’re interested in shaping busts, shoulders, or adding intriguing texture to your work, mastering short rows will open up a new realm of knitting possibilities. This class is ideal for knitters who have basic knitting skills (casting on, knitting, purling, and binding off) and want to take their craft to the next level with shaping techniques. Join us and learn how to make your knitting more dynamic and well-fitted!
