[Nfb-krafters-korner] Upcoming loom knit mock crochet stitch hat

[minh ha]

Hello all,

With all the talk about loom knit classes, I'm really excited to let
you know that I am teaching a loom knit class in September. I'll paste
the description and the link for you to go sign up below this email.
The class will teach you how to make the mock crochet (or 3-step)
stitch on a round loom. We will be making a hat from this stitch, and
I will teach you how to bind-off using the modified draw string bind
off. This is my favorite method of binding off hats so definitely sign
up. This is a more intermediate class because you need to know how to
cast on, e-wrap, purl, and work in the round. I will spend a little
bit of time describing how to do the stitches, but I will mainly focus
on the mock crochet stitch. I hope you'll all sign up for the class.
:)

"All men dream, but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty
recesses of their minds, wake in the day to find that it was vanity:
but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act on
their dreams with open eyes, to make them possible." T. E. Lawrence
