The Swish Net Scarf is a fringed Wrap with a hexagonal mesh pattern evocative of a fishing net. This project uses a special technique called the lattice stitch, creating fabric out of a series of icords. Because of this special light weight fabric, you'll get a lot more for your yardage - A great advantage if you are using bulky weight yarns.
Each row can be worked in a different color, making this the perfect project for mini skeins, scraps, or Advent calendars. In class, students will learn the basics of the lattice stitch technique including how to make an i-cord while making a section of the larger project.
Skill Level:This class is best suited for intermediate level knitters or adventurous
beginners who have experience reading patterns and working basic increases and
decreases.
