Easy, seamless, and beautiful, the ladderback jacquard technique will improve the tension of your stranded knitting while allowing you to span much larger areas between stitches. This knitting method adds stretch to the floats while preventing the alternate color from peeking through, and can be applied to nearly any stranded knitting project. Once you add this technique to your knitting toolbox, you may never want to go back to any other method of carrying floats.

Whether you're interested in tweaking patterns or developing your own colorwork designs, incorporating this technique means you can design without limits on the space between alternating motifs.

In class we'll learn several different options for setting up and resolving ladders and explore best practices for placement and charting, so you can envision how to bring this technique into your real-life knitting applications.
