You've seen it... You love it... You want it...
But how do you make it?

Join Laura Ninnemann for a one-day class as she walks you through the simple process of knitting this very popular and relatively easy fine-gauge asymmetrical scarf or shawl that starts out narrow then gracefully curves as it grows in width and length.

We will work with fingering or DK-weight yarn in garter stitch and toss in a couple of sweet little tricks along the way to add interest and charm to your creation. Then we will finish it off with either a simple standard bind-off or a lovely little picot edge. Stitches required include knit cast-on, garter, knit one front and back, yarn over, and knit two together. Laura will cover all of these during class, along with the picot edge stitch.
