Irina Anikeeva Workshop 2

Bavarian Twisted Stitches

Knit unique traveling cable designs and learn texture-rich, modern twists on traditional Bavarian techniques.

In this class we will learn about Bavarian twisted-stitch knitting and the fundamentals of twisted-stitch cables. We will practice working cables without a cable needle and reading the charts.
