[Nfb-krafters-korner] Sign-up No Longer Required for Kitchener Stitch Class

[Annette Carr]

Hi All,

 

Due to a technical problem with the posting of the Kitchener Stitch class on
our website, we are opening up the class to anyone who want to dial in.
Here is the information about the class:

 

Date:  February 7, 2015

Time:  3:00pm Eastern Time 

Class Type:  Telephone (dial-in info below)

 

Description:

This class will be taught over the telephone. It will teach you how to work
the Kitchener Stitch. This is a technique used to create a seam between 2
sets of live knitting stitches.  You must know how to cast on, knit and
purl.  We will not be going over these things in class as you will have had
to use these skills to complete the required homework.  You will need to
complete 2 swatches as homework prior to the start of the class in order to
participate during the class.

 

Pre-Class Required Homework:

You will need to knit 2 stockinet swatches based on the following
instructions.

 

.         Cast on 20 stitches

.         Row 1:  Knit across row

.         Row 2:  Pearl across row

.         Repeat these 2 rows until piece is at least 2 inches long.  You
can make it longer if desired, i.e. until piece is as long as it is wide so
that you have a square when you are done. 

.         Do not bind off work. 

.         Cut yarn leaving a 24 inch tail.

.         Place on stitch holder, or on a spare needle, or you can leave it
on your working needle while you create the 2nd swatch.   

.         Repeat these instructions for creating the 2nd swatch.

 

Once both swatches are complete, place one swatch on each of your needles if
you are using straight needles, or both swatches on your circular needle.
Your 24 inch yarn tail will need to be towards the point On one needle, and
away from the point on the other needle.  Please note that I had this stated
incorrectly in the message I posted previously about the homework for this
class.
