Introduction to Two-Colour Knitting

Ever wondered how to manage two colours at the same time over an entire row without getting the two yarns tangled up? Learn how to knit with two colours, (also known as stranded or Fair Isle knitting) with two hands, each carrying one colour. No more tangled yarns! We will be making a two-colour patterned headband on circular needles.


Prerequisite: Knowledge of knitting in the round using circular needles is a necessity. Participants will be required to cast on with one colour and knit a few rows of stocking stitch prior to class (directions will be provided).


instructor: Kathy Lea
