JOGLESS STRIPES WORKSHOP Level: Beginner Fee: $20 + supplies
 Knitting stripes in the round creates a "jog" when changing from one color to another. Learn the techniques to avoid this jog while knitting a three color hat in the round. Session 1: Sunday 4/7

TUBULAR CAST ON Level: Intermediate Fee: $20 + supplies
 The tubular cast-on gets its name because the first few rows are created with double knitting (two layers of fabric knit simultaneously). This makes the tubular cast-on edge more elastic than the long-tail cast-on. The class project is the Lucerne Hat. Brooklyn Tweed Peerie is used for this project. Session 1: Saturday 3/23 11:00 am - 1:00 pm Roz Robbins
