SUMMARY:Entrelac Candy Mittens
DESCRIPTION:Description \nLearn the entrelac knitting technique and make these sweet mittens in tiny bite-sized pieces. Entrelac is a wonderful way to knit small\, joined sections that work up into a textural\, woven look. It’s great for stashbusting\, self-striping yarns\, gradients cakes\, and colour play. As a side bonus\, you’ll learn how to “knit back” — knitting in the opposite direction so you’ll never have to turn your work — a useful technique for knitting any small section when it’s better to see it from the right side on every row. \n\nWhat You Will Learn\n\n\n\n\n\nThe entrelac technique: Make a knit fabric that resembles a basketweave but is actually made from small squares\, picked up and knit from the squares below.\nShaping within entrelac: How to increase and decrease while maintaining the entrelac pattern evenly.\nMaking a thumb hole in an entrelac mitten: How and wear to make a hole that keeps the entrelac pattern going but sets you up to knit a thumb later.\nEntrelac knitting in the round (versus entrelac knitting flat\, like you’d do for a scarf): how to switch from flat to in-the-round knitting with entrelac.\nKnitting back: Learning to knit in the opposite direction instead of turning and purling the work.\nHow to keep track of entrelac rows and tiers: Tips and tricks for finding your landmarks so you don’t lose your place.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClass Details\n\n\n\n\n\nDate & Time: \n\nMay 26th\, June 2nd\, and 9th\, 2026\n2 time slots\n\n@2:00-4:00pm\n@6:00-8:00pm\n\n\n\n\nLocation:\n\nMaker Savvy Classroom\n\n\nSkill Level: Intermediate\n\nIf you’re comfortable with basic knitting techniques and interested in adding new skills\, this class is for you\n\n\nInstructor & Qualifications:\n\nAmanda Schwabe has been teaching knitting classes for over a decade and designing knitting patterns for even longer. She focuses on teaching you the skills you’ll need to take charge of your own knitting — recognizing and fixing mistakes\, looking for patterns that link techniques\, and learning how to modify and shift knitting shapes to suit your own goals.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpecial Information & Preparation\n\nPre-Class Prep: Choose your yarn and bring it wound and ready to knit. If you’re stash busting and not sure about colour choices\, bring everything\, and you’ll learn a few tricks to help you make sense of a messy stash.\nYarn Suggestions: Fibrelya Sock Star matching gradient set\, Malabrigo Metamorphosis Collection Sock cake\, Koigu Paint Cans\, Sweet Georgia Sock Yarn Blank\nWhat’s Included in Registration:\n\nPattern: entrelac mittens pattern and technique handout by Amanda Schwabe\n\n\n\nRegister Here
