Maybe I like knitting after all!
Today I had a great time in a KNITTING class! Nancy Jane Campbell from Cool, CA came here to teach her Caps, Caps, Caps class. It was a fabulous class. Nancy is a great teacher and we were all so inspired with the variety of caps that she brought. She taught us a method of knitting caps that gives complete freedom to use whatever yarn you want, whatever needles are available, and end up with a unique cap that fits.
Look at the pile of hats on the table--all different!
These are mine--the start of two different caps. The purple one will have a light and dark purple design after I get past the increasing. That yarn is a superwash wool that I sell. I need a sample for upcoming shows so this was a good opportunity to knit something with it. The cap on the right is my handspun Jacob wool.
This was such a fun class and we all left with a sense of real accomplishment. Besides learning how to create these caps, Nancy also gave us all kinds of other knitting hints. She and I will plan another class to offer here later in the year.
