Bead Your Knitting - Belle Greene Shawl - V - Spring 2025

*This class fulfills the Knitting Elective Requirement for WEKP.

Together we will knit the beautiful Belle Greene Shawl, along the way learning best practices for lace shawl knitting, including a garter stitch tab start, patterns of increasing, ways to make this shawl larger or smaller if desired, how to block lace shawls, and even how to fix simple mistakes. We will learn 2 ways to add beads to our knit stitches, including a deep dive into seed beads themselves, and which are best to use in our knit projects. At the end you will have a gorgeous lace shawl to keep your shoulders warm this spring and add a little sparkle to your days.

You will receive the Zoom link 1-2 business days before the virtual class.
