Curious about colorwork but intimidated by knitting with more than one strand of yarn? Mosaic knitting is like stranded colorwork, but without the stranding: knit using only one color at a time and slip stitches to create a colorful, textured fabric.
Explore color theory, color selection for knitting, stranded knitting techniques increases and decreases in colorwork, and circular knitting. Choose from two hat patterns – Lucerne or Galloway and design your hat from a palette of 45 colors of Brooklyn Tweed Peerie.
Learn about Mosaic Knitting, a fun and simple colorwork technique, and prepare yourself for our upcoming Laurelie KAL.
