Continuation of Beginning Inkle Weaving:   All Day Class $85
Instructor:  Anne Ramey
Description:   
Come and learn (hands-on) a form of weaving as old as the vikings (older really). Vikings would have used inkle weaving for trim on tunics or straps for apron dresses or the many other things such weaving can be used for. It is a type of rigid heddle weaving that allows simple patterns to be woven very quickly. In class we will learn to create heddles, warp a loom, read a simple pattern and weave a simple inkle band.
No Experience Necessary
Students Should Bring:  Strong, non-stretching cord or thread, crochet cotton works well, no wool please (instructor allergy)
Materials Fee:  $2, covers heddle thread, handouts, if students want to buy a loom afterward it is an additional $38
​Class Limit:  10
Minimum Age:  12

Description:  In this class, you will go through the steps to becoming your own mitten designer. You’ll turn your hand measurements into a custom mitten chart for the gauge** you want. We’ll discuss cuffs, mitten shaping and thumb options.  Then, you will create a color work pattern on your chart and we will discuss tips for designing patterns that are easy to knit and look good too. At the end of class, you should have a good start on your own custom pattern as well as the skills to create more patterns for yourself and others. 

**Homework: Please knit a swatch in the yarn you would like to knit your mittens in and measure it for gauge. For best results, do a simple color work swatch in the round. Please email the instructor at jcraftyenough@gmail.com one week before the class with your gauge so she can provide you with the correct knitting graph paper.
Students should bring: pencil, eraser, measuring tape, calculator, thin sharpie or pen (optional), colored pencils (optional)
Experience required:  We will not be knitting in the class but advanced beginner to intermediate knitters with some experience reading knitting charts will get the most out of this class.

Materials Fee and what the fee includes: $5 printed instructions, worksheets and custom knitting graph paper as well as a memory stick with blank worksheets for future use.
