Cables are lovely…until you flip them over. Now learn how to make them reversible! Learn what can and cannot be reversed, and two methods of developing reversible cable fabric. Many examples of cables—rope, lozenge, celtic braid, horn and more—are covered with step-by-step examination and in-class exercises to convert them to reversibility. You will be given several reversible sample stitch patterns to knit up.
Skill Level: Intermediate. Participants should be able to accomplish long tail cast-on, and stitches such as knit, purl, K2tog, SSK, YO, and know how to do a basic rope cable and be able to read charts with cable symbols.
Student Supplies:
A cable needle, locking stitch markers, worsted weight wool or wool blend yarn in a light or medium color, US size 7 needles (or whatever you use for worsted weight).
Optional: stitch dictionaries with cable patterns (if you want to try finding other cable patterns to reverse beyond the multiple class examples).
Homework: None
Materials Fee: None
