This workshop is for the knitter who wants to dive deeper into hat construction, learn creative color-work, and examine how different fibers can elevate unique projects. We will learn multiple cast-on techniques, how to tension yarn, hold the yarn in the right and left hand, handle floats, and explore knitting hats from personalized ideas. We will explore how to make patterns pop! and numerous elements of hat construction and decreasing methods. After knitting hundreds of hats, Emolyn will share her process of designing, how to use inspiration to guide pattern choice and sizing, as well as compare attributes of fiber and yarn. You will have a chance to make a two-ply sample of yarn on a spinning wheel.
