*This class fulfills the  Requirement for WEKP.

Learn how fun it is to knit with both hands at once as you create mesmerizing patterns in two colors of yarn. In the class materials, you will be able to select one of many patterns to incorporate into the body of a simple hat. Some of the designs included are a snowflake, heart, checkerboard, diamonds, zig zag, and bubbles. Whether you are new to Stranded Colorwork or have worked it before, there is always a new trick to be learned in one of Shaina's workshops.

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

Using worsted weight yarn and size 7 16" circular needles, cast on 90 stitches. Place a marker and join in the round being careful not to twist the stitches.
