Starting at square one!

We've found a wonderful pairing - Tin Can Knit's Vivid blanket and Townhouse Yarns' "Saoirse" colourway! Vivid is the teaching pattern for one of Emily Wessel's workshops on Saturday June 27th. We can't wait to host Emily - she's a wonderfully inventive designer and such a good teacher. Vivid is the most versatile pattern – made in easy bite-sized squares like the ones above, it’s a great baby blanket. And it's surprisingly easy, especially when Emily's showing you how. You’ll learn the pinhole cast on method, how to read a lace chart, how to knit in the round using the magic loop method (if you want – you can use double-pointed needles if you prefer), how to block your individual lace squares and finally how to seam your pieces together with an overhand stitch. And best of all, it'll be enormous fun! The Vivid workshop is from 2.00pm to 5.00pm in the afternoon. You'll find the booking page for it at this link. There's still a few places left, both for Vivid and for Emily's Lush cardigan workshop in the morning. It's hard to think of a better way to spend a Saturday!
