Lisa Ross – Design Your Own Multi-Color Shawl

Wednesday, August 5, 2026 @ 1:00 PM - 4:00 PM

Overview

This class will teach the basics of creating an asymmetric triangular shawl, with all the information you need to cast on.

Students will learn how to make the numbers add up easily with the help of a spreadsheet and how to track yardage as you create. You’ll explore how to easily incorporate color and clever stitch patterns into a design that’s as unique as you are.

We’ll start with a tiny swatch version, though fast knitters can quickly grow their shawls into gorgeous new designs!
