Woven Knitting Weekend Workshop 4- Cross Woven Stitch and Woven Basket Weave - V - Fall 2024

*This class fulfills the  Requirement for WEKP.

Let’s end our weekend together with some serious finger dexterity. This cross woven stich combines a lot of what we learned in the herringbone but adds the fun dimension of knitting with 2 different sized needles. This fun pattern can be scary as you drop stitches to knit and/or slip them out of order without the safety net of using a cable needle. But have no fear, I’ve never lost a stitch yet.

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

Prerequisite:
Materials Required:

This requires a light colored solid chunky yarn.

Darker colors will hide the pattern.

You will need to use needles that gives you a loose stockinette stitch (yes you need to swatch before class) and use that size needle to cast on 22 sts and work a K2 P2 rib for 1 inch.

Also have a second needle that is 2 3 4 and maybe even 5 times large. For this sample I did my right side rows with a size 10 needle and my wrong side rows with a size 15 needle.

And if time allows, we will end with a Woven Basket Weave

A light worsted in a multi color works great here. Do a swatch ahead to find needles that give you a stockinette that you like. Then have needles 1 2 and 3 sizes larger for playing with this stitch. Have a cable needle on the stand by in case you lose your nerve.

When possible, please buy your materials from WEBS.
