Course Description:

Learn traditional and adaptations of Portuguese style knitting using yarn produced in Portugal from local flocks!  We will use a long fiber wool that is traditionally used for warm shepherds’ blankets. More than just learning the style of holding and manipulating the yarn, we’ll apply a finish that produces a fuzzy surface.

Materials fee includes a typical knitting guide pin, and two skeins of yarn. Additional yarn will be available for purchase.

Course Cost:
