Stitch harmony creates a beautiful and balanced Aran piece. Whether your ambition involves hats, scarves, sweaters or coats, a strong swatch directory of your own is key. While working this group Edel will advise on sizing, tension, pattern writing tips interlaced with strong visuals and samples from her past and recent collection

SKILL LEVEL:

Knowledge of knit and purl with some cabling background helpful but not essential. A medium-fast paced class to cover all stitches listed. 

The set up: flat and cabled ribs,

The mosses: fast and beautiful textured and reversible surfaces in knit and purl,

The honeycomb: subtle or bold, a uniquely Irish paddedfabric,

The trinity or blackberry: a visual delight and the sign of a true hand knit,

The link or feather: a beginners delight and rooted in Donegal knitting,

The family tree: Edel’s method is busy with branches.

MATERIALS:

A 50g ball of Irish white wool will be provided, enough to complete the sampler.

Aran or worsted yarns are welcome in lighter solid shades in 100% wool. 

Sport weightis welcome too for use with 4mm needles
