Join the amazing Lavanya Patricella and learn a fast and fun technique for creating duplicate stitches in knitting using a crochet hook. This method of surface crochet for knitters is a super easy way to do color work without having to carry your contrasting color. You will knit a swatch beforehand and learn all the tricks for surface crochet in class. We are over-the-moon to welcome Lavanya back to Wild Hand!!

Skills & Materials
This is a beginner+ workshop and students will need to know how to knit a swatch (cast-on, knit, purl, and bind-off). No previous crochet skills are required. The workshop fee includes a crochet hook and yarn for completing the duplicate stitching. Students are responsible for the swatch yarn and creating a small swatch in advance. There is a little bit of homework for this workshop, which will be detailed in your registration confirmation email.
