Knitters Frolic

Wannietta is knitting with Debbie Bliss' new Rialto Luxury Sock. The minute I saw the yarn I thought ZickZack.

She cast on 72 stitches so that it will be longer and not as wide. I know that she is a very fast knitter but I want her to knit faster. Hurry Wannietta. I want to see this in person.

Have you considered taking a class at the Knitters Frolic?

Workshops are being offered on Saturday and Sunday.

Fiona has used slip-stitch to add interest to many of her designs. It is one of her favorite methods for adding a hit of colour and / or texture. In this class you will learn some of the possibilities this technique can offer, and discuss how and where to use them effectively.
