Join us for a fun afternoon playing with little bits of wool! Commonly known as thrums, these are pieces of wool roving that are worked into your knitting to create a warm, dense fabric. They can be knit into hats and slippers, but the most common use is in mittens. This is a project workshop where participants will work away at adding thrums to a pair of mittens.
required skills:
- how to cast on and work in the round (on circular or double pointed needles) on small-circumference projects.
what the class teaches:
- Preparing wool roving to make thrums; adding thrums to knitted pieces
homework
Please arrive to class having knit the cuff of one of your mittens. This is so we can focus on how to create thrums. There will not be time during the workshop to knit the cuff and also learn to thrum.
what to bring
- 100g of non-superwash worsted weight wool yarn (Cascade 220 or Sandnes Garn Atlas recommended!)
what's included
- roving in a colour of your choice for the thrums
- a copy of the pattern
