Make sweaters, blankets, socks - maybe even paint a wall in eye-catching stripes! Learn how to control the variables of colour, stitch pattern, and stripe width to create rhythmical stripes that are more interesting than regular stipes and more orderly than random ones. While the examples we will look at in class are knit, the concepts apply equally to crochet, weaving, and other crafts.
