2009: The Year of the Afghan
This year we'll be switching from scarves to afghan squares. While we will be using yarn from our shop to make each square, the patterns will be written for any worsted weight yarn that gets approximately 4.5 stitches/inch on a US 8. So feel free to substitute anything you have in your stash! At the end of the year you will have twelve squares (more, if you do some of them twice) and while the squares will be interesting enough to keep even advanced knitters interested, it would also be a good project for the new or intermediate knitter who is interested in learning some new skills throughout the year. The squares are designed to get increasingly more challenging and exciting as the year goes on, so enjoy!
Do you think you might need help with some of the squares? While the patterns will always be free, we will be offering some workshops that will give you class time and instruction, a set of needles, and appropriate yarn for the project.
