Stranded Colorwork Calaveras Mittens (in person)
In this four part class, the instructor will guide students through the techniques needed to knit two-color stranded mittens in the
round, including alternate cast on methods, reading charts, catching yarn floats, pairing increases and decreases, working thumb
gussets, and finishing. In the final session we will embellish the finished mittens with embroidery inspired by Day of the Dead
calaveras motifs.
