New! MiniVersity Course: Small Scale Knitting
D. Thomas MiniVersity Spring 2024 semester is underway! The next course is scheduled for Thursday, April 11 at 7pm ET and will be led by IGMA Artisan Julie Steiner from RidiculousTinyThings (Instagram). Julie is a micro scale knitting and crochet artist from Philadelphia who crafts some of the most awesome tiny scale works you've ever seen!
Julie will present “Downsizing Your Knitting: Tips and Tricks for Knitting in Small Scale” which will answer the question: Do you want to take your knitting tiny?" She'll walk you through her personal knitting journey and share what she’s learned (and created!) along the way including tools and material sources, choosing patterns and final finishing tricks.
This course will address scaling and how to achieve a properly sized piece and is for all all skill levels including those who are familiar with working in full scale! You'll leave with terrific information and to help you move to knitting smaller!
This should be awesome!
