Knit colorfully and dare to cut - May 17-18, 2025

Knit colorfully and dare to cut

Colorwork knitting and steeking are two techniques that open up a world of possibilities in knitting. During this two-day course, you will dive into both areas while creating a small project bag – perfect for storing your small knitting accessories!

On day one, we focus on colorwork knitting. You will learn how to work with two colors simultaneously, hold yarns, and get other useful tips that enhance your knitting. Day two is time to steek, to cut into our knitting. You will try two different ways to secure the knitting before taking out the scissors and be guided step by step through the process.

As a project during the weekend, we work on a small bag where you get to try both techniques. By the end of the course, you will have – if not a completely finished – then an almost finished project bag that you can take home and start using.

Course leader:
Emelie Bröms, a dedicated knitter with a passion for colorwork knitting. Emelie regularly holds courses and workshops and collaborates with both Swedish and international knitting designers in their pattern production. On Instagram, @annaemeliemakes, she shares her beautiful creations, tips, and inspiration.

Prerequisites:
You need to have basic knitting skills. It is an advantage if you have tried knitting with two colors before, but it is not a requirement – we go through the techniques from the beginning.

What to bring:
Bring needles between 2.5-3.5 mm. We recommend circular needles, as we knit with magic loop, but if you prefer double-pointed needles, that is perfectly fine.

Shetland yarn is included so you can choose for your project in all beautiful colors and shades.

Two lunches at lilla Spinneriet and morning coffee are included.

Time and place:
We meet at the store 60 Garner Nord, at Spinneriet in Lindome:
