Textured Knitting in the Round with Rosann Fleischauer

Sun. Sept. 10, 1-3 pm.

The collection of knit garments and accessories in Cozy Coastal Knits uses a series of different
textured stitches to add visual interest to your finished piece of wearable fiber art. In this two-hour
class, we explore some of the textured stitches worked in the round in the collection. We will
create a small swatch library from which you can derive inspiration to begin your own finished
garment or accessory.
