YARNIVAL Mitered Madness
Come and play with a technique that looks tough but it super easy. Basic knit stitches are put to use in different ways to create diamond shapes and rectangles. These are then picked up one onto the other. We’ll play with picking up stitches, numbers needed, placement of decreases and styles of decreases.
When you are done, you’ll be ready to start on a new garment, accessory, or home décor project using new yarn especially for this idea or incorporating some of your stash. (Shhhh…..no one knows you have yarn stash.)
This is a two part class. Part 1 is an exploration of techniques. Part 2 we apply our new skills to a project.
The class is on Zoom and will be recorded. Students will have access to the recording for 30 days.

| Instructor Bio: | Barry Klein grew up in the needle art industry. His mother owned a very successful needlework store where Barry learned to needlepoint, knit and crochet from the age of 6 on up. Barry learned to design knitwear from one of the head industry designers and spent many afternoons at the store helping custom design knitwear for the customers. During college, Barry studied business marketing and television arts hoping to go to work in the advertising field. During college, Barry also worked as a sales agent selling fashion yarns to retail stores along the west coast as well as designing sweaters for Vogue Knitting and some of the companies he represented. After college, Barry decided that knitting was in his blood and with the help of his mother, they together started Trendsetter Yarns. Success was instantaneous for Trendsetter Yarns as the passion Barry brought to designing his sweaters translated into designing his yarns brining the name ?Trendsetter? to life. Along with this, Barry has been featured on successful television shows ?Knitty Gritty?, ?Uncommon Threads? and ?The Needleart Studio.? Many of you may be familiar with Barry and have taken classes with him at Stitches Events or at your local knitting store where Barry has been sharing his many talents with knitters for years. |
