I am organising a knitting workshop with Sue Cullen for Saturday the 21st of November.  We will be teaching two classes, Finishing Touches – Edging with a difference and Knitting Socks from the Top Down.  The classes will be taught in both the morning and the afternoon and if you want to take both classes there is a reduced price (€30 for one class and €50 for both).

We want to keep the classes fairly small so numbers will be limited, please get in contact early if you are interested.

For more details on the classes see http://www.stolenstitches.com/classes/

I’m really looking forward to teaching this class, I get to teach one of my favourite subjects – edging!  The two edging techniques that I’ll be focusing on create very professional and clean finishes and with can be achieved without much difficulty by all knitters.

I have a mountain of knitting work related items to finish but for the last 24 hours I’ve run off with a knitting mini-escape. I had been using a hank of Fleece artist ‘Sea Wool’ in a lovely Moss color for a test swatch and I didn’t want to stop knitting with it. So to indulge myself I’ve been using the rest of the hank to knit a little shawlette. It feels so beautiful, I can’t stop knitting, should be finished it tomorrow!
Meanwhile the other related working I have been shrugging off because of this…reformatting a pattern, finishing a pdf, start another pattern for a new project, finish a mountain of submissions (I think I have 10 I need to get out in the next week!) and start planning a class for a couple of months time.
Myself and Sue Cullen are going to do a day of classes on Saturday the 21st of November. We have booked in the SMA centre in Wilton in Cork so put the day in your calender! We will have 2 different 3 hour morning classes and 2 afternoon classes, with a discount if you want to book the complete day. We are putting the final details together for the class titles but it should be a very enjoyable day.
