Celtic Knotwork & Emblematic Patterns Fri 10 Sept 10am - Alice Starmore
Product code: GA0098
£25.00
A class by Alice Starmore
Celtic knotwork and emblematic patterns are signature elements of Alice Starmore's work as a hand knitting designer.
Starmore created these knitting genres for her book The Celtic Collection, published 1992.
I also developed a charting system to make these types of patterns easy to understand and to knit.
In this class you will learn how to read and use my charting system; you will also learn the techniques involved in knitting knotwork and emblematic patterns. I will demonstrate how to translate a design into a chart for knitting and you will have the opportunity to practice this yourself.
Class Duration
11/2 hours
Class Aim
To provide you with everything you need to know in order to begin working your own variations and, ultimately, to design your own patterns.

To take part in this class you need only to be able to cast on, make knit stitches and purl stitches, and cast off.

? Approximately 25g of DK or Aran-weight yarn
? One pair of appropriately-sized knitting needles
(3.75-4mm for DK yarn / 4.5-5mm for Aran-weight yarn)
