Conquering Short Rows

Description

Short rows are everywhere! Until you learn to work them, they can seem intimidating. Don’t let that fear keep you from casting on for an amazing pattern. Short rows are partial rows of knitting that are worked to shape or curve sections of a piece of knitting, without increasing or decreasing stitches.

If you’ve ever put your knitting down, then picked it up and worked back the wrong way, you have knit a short row. You’ve also created a hole at the turning point. Short rows mitigate that hole to create a smooth transition.

In this workshop, you’ll learn how to knit several different short rows methods. We will discuss the difference between the methods and how to substitute your favorite. There is a short row method for you!

Intermediate Skill Level: must be able to cast on, bind off, knit, purl, read/follow a pattern, and work a variety of stitch patterns with combinations of knits and purls.
