Speed Knitting Techniques
Do you want to knit faster? Do you want to relieve pain in your wrists, thumbs, hands or shoulders? Or do you just want to learn a couple of new knitting skills? This demo/workshop will help you do all three. We will explore the Portuguese Style of Knitting, Flicking, and Irish Cottage (or Lever) Knitting. All three of these skills will help you increase your speed and give your knitting aches and pains a break.
