Saturday found me in Marlow, teaching a patchwork knitting workshop with Rosie <\/a>and Jill. This was the first try-out of a new venue, Marlow Bottom Village Hall, and it was lovely. This lady greeted us on our arrival.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

It was a really nice bright space, enough room to move but without being cavernous and intimidating.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We covered a variety of different module shapes and joining techniques. Rosie has recently been working on strips made up of hourglass shapes. Here is the shape attendees were working on in class, with a mixture of stocking stitch and garter stitch:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And here is Rosie’s scarf she had made all in garter stitch. I love the sequin yarn used just on the joining sections.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Apart from the teaching, one of the other things I love about these days is the opportunity to see what everyone has been working on. Very inspiring!<\/p>\n

This is a blanket by Marion, using a variety of different shapes, and one subtle multicolour yarn:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A blanket in two yarns, one solid and one with flecks, by Jill:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

And an example that shows you can create very interesting texture effects using mitred squares in just one colour. I think this one was by Helen, but please correct me if I have got it wrong:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

All in all a lovely day. We are hoping to hold another at a similar time of year next year, I am looking forward to it already!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
