CANCELED Machine Knit at Poncho! (in person)
|
Machine knit a lovely poncho – perfect for transitioning through the seasons. Students will learn: Mid-gauge LK-150 or Brother KH-350’s will be available for use. Students may (and are encouraged to) use their own machine, but instructors need to be assured the machine is in working condition before the day of class. |
The included pattern is based loosely on the Churchmouse Easy Folded Poncho, but modified for machine knitting with additional instructions for optional cowl neckline and ideas for modifications
Materials needed: 1200 yards of DK wt yarn - sample shown in photo is Wool Pop & Mohair and the in store sample is made with Nature Spun Sport and Mohair. We don't encourage using 2 strands on your first poncho but it's great for a future poncho.
Additional yarn may be required if students want to modify the size or knit the cowl.
PLEASE ARRIVE TO CLASS WITH YOUR YARN in CAKES or BALLS ready to knit.
Other yarns that would work are: Remix Light by Berroco, Cosette by Dream in Color, Bamboo Pop by Universal, Arroyo by Malabrigo (this is hand dyed so there needs to be consideration for blending in skeins, Arranmore Light by The Fibre Company and Rowan Felted Tweed Colour
Yarn for the poncho class must be purchased for Longmont Yarn Shoppe. Students can enjoy a 10% discount on class materials. When shopping online use code STUDENT10 to get the 10% discount.
Yardage may vary depending on the machine used. If someone has a standard gauge or bulky machine, the amount will be different.
