Colorwork Cowl Workshop

  • Firefly Fiber Arts Studio 2860 North Milwaukee Avenue Chicago, IL, 60618 United States (map)

Learn how to knit stranded colorwork with a fun Doodle cowl by Jamie Lomax! Stranded colorwork knitting, also known as Fair Isle or two-handed knitting, combines two or more colors in a single row to create intricate patterns and designs. This technique results in a rich, textured fabric. Often used for sweaters, hats, and accessories, colorwork allows knitters to explore their creativity by blending hues and creating visually striking motifs. Embrace the challenge and delight in the beauty of your handmade creations.

Our experienced instructor, Sarah, will guide you through every step of creating your Doodle Cowl. Class instruction includes how to read a colorwork chart, how to knit stranded colorwork, handling floats and overall construction of your cowl. You’ll be able to pick your preferred colorwork pattern for this class from a bundle of patterns so you can make a unique Doodle cowl!
