The goal of this series is to fine tune your own spinning abilities and to be able to plan for and complete a project using your own handspun yarn. Throughout this series\, you will be working on building a portfolio of skills through exercises designed to help you fine tune your skills and document your progress. \nMost of the topics will be presented in lecture format with demonstration. You will be given assignments to be completed on your own time between classes\, with support through a dedicated online Facebook forum between lectures. Lectures will be once per month. Previous assignments will be reviewed at each lecture and must be completed\, as skills build on each other in this program. Expect to spend at least 1 hour/week on homework. Most days students will be able to stay and spin after class is over. \nTopics Covered: \n\nAll About Your Spinning Wheel\nThick and Thin : Discovering the range of your wheel\nWorsted spinning\nWoolen spinning\nBalanced plying\nMeasurement tools/ How to describe your yarn\nRecreating a commercial yarn\nIs it project worthy?\nBringing it All Together – Designing a project\n\nRequired supplies/equipment/books: Spinning Wheel (either traditional or e wheel) in good working order. 3-inch 3 ring binder or large penda flex folder for your portfolio.

SUMMARY:Introduction to Double Knitting\, class 1 of 1
DESCRIPTION:Day/Date/Time: Saturday\, 11/22/2025\, from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm. This class meets once. \nDescription:  Double knitting is more than a trick you read about in War and Peace. At its most basic\, double knitting involves knitting with two colors at one time to create a positive and negative side of the work. It could be a hat\, one sock knit inside the other as in War and Peace\, bands to finish sweaters\, garments\, blankets\, and so much more. In this class you will learn the basics — how to cast on\, manage your selvedges and bind off for flat knitting. Your finished piece will be a hot pad. The cool thing about double knitting is that there is no “wrong” side and both sides look great. \nRequired Supplies/Equipment/Books: Students should bring needles in US Sizes #1 through #5. Most knitters tend to need a smaller size needle to achieve gauge\, so come prepared with multiple sizes. For this size work I usually use a 24″ circular with longer tips (5″ rather than 4″). In addition\, bring your usual knitting tool kits to include locking stitch markers\, crochet hook or Fix-It tool\, and scissors. You will also need two contrasting colors of Sinfonia (one 50 gm ball each). \nPrerequisite: It is helpful to have knit with two yarns at the same time as in Fair Isle Knitting. \nPre-Class Prep: None \nInstructor: Joan Sheridan \nMaximum:   8  students  \nFee: $50.00 \nClick to Register
