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

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.
:)
