Surrounded by all that yarn and can’t wait to pick up a pair of needles or a crochet hook? Spend an hour trying a technique, learning a skill, or just playing with yarn in new ways.

New knitters and crocheters can take the next steps by learning to join yarn invisibly or block your knitting.

More experienced? Comfortable with lace but intimidated by knitting with two circulars? Fluent in Fair Isle but never tried short rows? Market Sessions give you a taste of a technique, letting you decide if you’ll go back for seconds or say “no thanks!”

Everyone! For one hour, explore the possibilities of knotting and the magic of rigid-heddle weaving. Learn the basics of Kool Aid dyeing or what Tunisian crochet is all about.

With 21 sessions to choose from, take one or take several.

Cindy Craig

Friday 10:30 am - 11:30 amTT25 1 hr Easy Magical Reversible Cables I love when my scarves don’t have a wrong side. You’ll learn to make a cable that looks the same on both sides. It is perfect for scarves and other applications where both sides are showing. Note: You should already be familiar with knitting cables before taking this class.

Supplies: #4 (worsted-weight) yarn in a light color, appropriately sized knitting needles, cable needle.

Friday 12:30 pm - 1:30 pmTT6 1 hr Easy Knitted Miters Basic knitting skills such as casting on, picking up, and decreasing—combined with color and texture—create endless possibilities. Mitered knitting can become squares, rectangles, diamonds, or strips and is the foundation of some of today’s best designs. You will learn to make a basic square, to join squares as you go, and to build the squares into a project. You will also receive a pattern for a Kindle or iPad cover and begin the project in class.

Supplies: 100 yards #5 (chunky-weight) yarn in 2 complementary colors and 2 double-pointed US 9 or 10 needles.

Friday 2:00 pm - 3:00 pmTT23 1 hr Easy Charts Can Be Your Friends Don’t let a chart scare you. Many knitters prefer working from charts instead of written directions. Once you get the hang of them, charts can make knitting a lot easier. In this class you will learn the basic symbols, the basic rules for chart reading, and some tricks that make it easy. We’ll practice knitting from a simple chart while making a cozy for your coffee cup (or soda can).

Supplies: Smooth, #4 (worsted-weight) yarn in a light color and US 7 needle.

Friday 3:30 pm - 4:30 pmCR12 1 hr No Skills Required Tunisian Crochet A cross between knitting and crochet, this fabric looks woven. Let’s play with some stitches while making a business card holder.

Supplies: One skein #4 (worsted-weight) yarn, Tunisian crochet hook in a size appropriate for your yarn.

Cindy learned to knit while chaperoning Girl Scouts in Norway. As a self-professed knitting geek, she enjoys exploring the technical side of knitting and tinkering with new skills, stitch patterns, knitting patterns, and concepts. Cindy has been teaching professionally in yarn shops, guild events, and knitting shows for more than 10 years. She is the author of The Kids Knitting Notebook and has designs published in Knitter’s Magazine, Knitting Today, and Red Heart, in addition to many self-published patterns.

Cindy is the manager of The Studio Knitting & Needlepoint since 2002 where she loves helping students learn to knit or crochet and is very skilled at getting students unstuck. She knits everywhere she goes and frequently answers knitting questions on the sidelines of the soccer field, at PTA meetings, or at Scouting events.

Cindy Craig

Saturday 12:30 pm - 1:30 pmTT1 1 hr Easy Short Rows Short rows can create curves and shapes in your knitted fabric. They are used for heels of socks, bust darts, and shoulder shaping. You will learn basic short rows in both garter and stockinette stitch, wrap and turn, and ‘hiding’ the wraps to make them virtually invisible. Included in this class is a pattern for a Curly Q Scarf that we will begin.

Supplies: 210 yards of #4 (worsted-weight) yarn and US 9 needles.

Saturday 2:00 pm - 3:00 pmTT13 1 hr No skills required Invisible Joins—Well Nearly Invisible Joining yarn in the middle of the row can be frustrating if the join is noticeable. This class will do the Russian braided, and the knotted joins. Learn which join to do based on the fiber content of your yarn. Your next project will fly because you can’t wait to get to the end of the ball to try your new skills. Both knitters and crocheters will find these joins useful.

Supplies: 5 yards each of two colors #4 (worsted-weight) WOOL yarn, 5 yards each of two colors #4 (worsted-weight) COTTON yarn; tapestry needle.

Saturday 3:30 pm - 4:30 pmCR12 1 hr No Skills Required Tunisian Crochet A cross between knitting and crochet, this fabric looks woven. Let’s play with some stitches while making a business card holder.

Supplies: One skein #4 (worsted-weight) yarn, Tunisian crochet hook in a size appropriate for your yarn.

Sunday 11:30 am - 12:30 pmTT18 1 hr Easy Uh, Oh! Fixing Mistakes All knitters make mistakes. It can be frustrating when you can’t fix them yourself, so you rip out and start over numerous times. This class focuses on the most common skills beginners need: picking up dropped stitches, correcting mistakes a few rows back, and understanding the difference between ripping back and un-knitting. These skills will help you relax when an ‘oops’ comes along.

Supplies: Practice amount of #4 (worsted-weight) yarn, US 8 or 9 needles, and F, G, or H crochet hook.

Deborah Jarchow

Saturday 12:30 pm - 1:30 pmXT12 1 hr No skills required Rigid-heddle Weaving Have you wondered what all the excitement is about weaving? Have you heard that warping the loom is difficult and complicated? During this demonstration you will see just how easy it is to set up a rigid-heddle loom and begin weaving. With very little experience, you can easily weave beautiful fabric for scarves, bags, pillows, and so much more. Let yourself learn about a new way to use your yarn. During this discussion you will see examples of how many different things can be created from the rigid-heddle looms.

After many years of teaching knitting and crochet, Deborah discovered weaving in 1996, and her love of fiber, texture, and color came together. Since then she has worked full time as a weaver and artist, including teaching fiber arts, creating and selling wearable art, giving lectures, and showing in local, regional, and national exhibits. Deborah’s work has been exhibited at galleries and museums across the country, and she has won numerous awards and written articles for national publications. Her work has been commissioned by churches and is in many private collections. Since 2004 she has been an artist in residence, teacher, and weaver at Studio Channel Islands Art Center in Camarillo, CA. Deborah loves helping knitters discover the joy of weaving.

Leslye Solomon

Friday 3:30 pm - 4:30 pmFF7 1 hr No skills required What Every Knitter Should Know About Blocking Imagine all of your garments fitting perfectly, looking extremely well-made, and staying that way. In this class, learn when and why before-you-knit and after-you-knit blocking is so important for every demonstration project. See dramatic differences between blocked and unblocked hand-knit fabrics and learn how you should approach all your knit projects. Prevent unexpected results related to gauge, shrinking, stretching, and dimensions. See the tools available to help shape your garments to give the best finished appearance. If you think blocking is just pinning in place and wetting when you’re finished knitting, this class promises to elevate your skill level.

Having taught at STITCHES events for more than 20 years and at a variety of knitting seminars from England to Alaska, Leslye Solomon is an enthusiastic, energetic, and empathetic teacher with extensive knitwear training.

Leslye owns Woolstock Yarn Shop in Glyndon, Maryland. She shares her experience and knowledge in instructional videos, DVDs and books. Subjects covered include sweater finishing, making socks using double points and a single circular needle, techniques in buttonholes and bands, a wonderful method of continental knitting, bead knitting, and machine knitting, including a book entitled The Uncomplicated Knitting Machine. Leslye has also created KnitSpeaker, an iPhone, iPad, iPod timed-audio pattern-repeating app for knitters.

A class with Leslye is an experience that will arm students with valuable knowledge. Their only concern is whether they will remember it all!

Stacey Trock

Friday 12:30 pm - 1:30 pm TT29 1 hr Easy How to Knit with Two Circulars Do you want to knit socks and hats, but double points are driving you batty? Knitting on two circular needles might be your answer!

In one quick hour, you’ll learn the basic technique for casting on and knitting with two circular needles. You’ll never need double points, again!

Supplies: 1 ball of yarn, 2 pairs of circular needles in a size appropriate for yarn. Both needles should be the same size but either different lengths (16 and 24”) or different needle colors for the easiest results.

Saturday 3:30 pm - 4:30 pmTT40 1 hr Easy Learn to Kitchener Stitch You’ve probably seen the Kitchener Stitch mentioned in your knitting patterns: it’s a go-to technique for finishing the toe of a sock or the seam of a sweater. But, the instructions can be a little daunting!

In this class, you’ll learn the steps to graft stitches together successfully and fearlessly.

Supplies: #4 (worsted-weight) yarn, appropriately sized circular needle (24” or longer), tapestry needle.

Sunday 1:30 pm - 2:30 pmXT5 1 hr No skills required Dye with Kool Aid! Did you know that you can use regular ol’ Kool Aid to dye your yarn in beautiful colors? It’s true! In just one hour, you’ll learn how to use Kool Aid to turn a skein of plain white yarn into a beautiful hand-dyed piece of art! Once you learn the basics, you’ll never look at a skein of plain white yarn the same way again!

Supplies: At least one skein of plain, white, 100% wool yarn in a hank, a few packets of Kool Aid for each skein. Optional: rubber gloves and a Ziplock bag for taking the yarn home.

Stacey has been bringing cuteness into the crochet-world with her adorable stuffed animals since 2008. She is the author of Cuddly Crochet and Crocheted Softies and has self-published over 100 irresistibly cute animal patterns through her website, FreshStitches. Stacey firmly believes that there’s no ‘right way’ to crochet and enthusiastically experiments with a variety of techniques (even less-popular ones!) to achieve the desired finished product. This philosophy spills over into her teaching style: she encourages students to discover what works best for their own crocheting style for maximum crochet enjoyment!

Friday 10:30 am - 11:30 amCC5 1 hr Easy Stranded Color Learn to work holding 2 colors at the same time! Commonly called Fair Isle knitting, this technique for stranding colors across the back lets you create brightly colored and patterned fabrics. While working on a small bag/hat project, you’ll practice getting an even tension (not too tight, not too loose), learn ways to prevent yarns from twisting, and try different holding techniques. Come get a taste of this classic knitting technique!

Note: Students must already be familiar with knitting in the round. Supplies: 2 balls (50 yds each) #5 (chunky-weight) yarn in 2 complementary colors and a US 10½ circular needle 16” long, measured from tip to tip.

In class you’ll create a swatch with I-cord edges worked at the same time, learn how to turn a corner, execute an I-cord bind-off, and create I-cord button loops.

Note: Must know how to work a basic stockinette stitch I-cord.

Supplies: 20 yds #4 (worsted-weight) yarn, set of double-pointed needles in size appropriate for yarn.

Friday 3:30 pm - 4:30 pmTT38 1 hr Easy Pleasing Plaits The intriguing horizontal element known as Herringbone or Latvian braid is seen on garments and accessories across northern Europe and the Baltic.

By the end of class you’ll be planning pleasing plaits for all your projects!

Supplies: 20 yds each #4 (worsted-weight ) yarn in 2 complementary light or bright colors, US 7 needle, basic supplies (scissors, tapestry needle, markers, etc).

Saturday 10:30 am - 11:30 amSP5 1 hr Easy Edgier Edges Add edge to your edgings with these 2 easy, pretty beginnings. Reverse yarn overs create eyelets on the YO chain while cast-on/cast-off stitches give the picots their teeth. Sew your chains around garments, pick up stitches in them to get started, or simply add findings and wear them as jewelry!

Supplies: 20-30 yds #4 (worsted-weight) yarn in a solid, light, or bright color; knitting needles in size recommended on ball band.

Saturday 12:30 pm - 1:30 pmTT39 1 hr Easy Criss... Cross... Cable! At its most basic, a cable is a group of stitches whose parts swap position every few rows. The maneuvering required to swap stitches is simple to learn. Their complex appearance comes about because of the many ways stitches can be grouped, arranged, and intertwined with other groups. Learn the basics of crossing cables, terminology, and how to work them from written instructions and from a chart.

Supplies: 50 yards #4 (worsted-weight) yarn in a light or bright color; US 7 needle; cable needle, any type; basic supplies (scissors, tapestry needle, markers, etc)

Saturday 2:00 pm - 3:00 pmSP6 1 hr Intermediate Loopy for Loop Stitch Learn the loop technique that can create fun fur or fashionable fringe on knit fabric. In class, you’ll learn two techniques for making loops—one for each side of the fabric—plus how to make double loops in each stitch. Instructions are included for turning the class project into au courant boot toppers. Liven your projects up with loops!

Supplies: 50 yds #4 (worsted weight) yarn in a light or bright color, US 7 needle, basic supplies (scissors, tapestry needle, markers, etc).

Saturday 3:30 pm - 4:30 pmXT11 1 hr No Skills Required Knotting Nuttiness Cords of all kinds—cast-on, bind-off, crochet chain, I-cord, kumihimo, paracord or just plain super-bulky yarn—can be turned into jewelry, coasters, buttons, and frogs with just a little knotting know-how. In class, you’ll learn how to tie zipper sinnets, braid knots, carrick bends, and more using a length of clothesline. You’ll go home with a step-by-step reference handout to remind you of which end goes where! Get nutty for knots!

Supplies: Materials provided.

Sunday 11:30 am - 12:30 pmTT2 1 hr Easy Continental Knitting Continental knitting involves tensioning the yarn in the hand holding the unworked stitches (for most people this is the left hand) and using the other needle to pick stitches through in a quick and efficient manner. It is a great technique to have in your knitting repertoire. It can solve a multitude of knitting problems or just be a good companion to the way you already knit. Your instructor will teach the basics of tensioning the yarn and picking the stitches rather than throwing. We will learn the knit and purl stitches and have time to practice and discuss how to transition to this useful method of knitting.

Supplies: Any yarn and appropriate knitting needles for sampling.
