Grid Gambit Cowl Class
Ready to add a little color and a few new tricks to your knitting? Join Jax for Grid Gambit, a fun cowl project that's all about playing with color and texture!
In this three-session class, you'll explore mosaic knitting, a clever technique that creates beautiful two-color patterns without having to juggle two strands of yarn at once. You'll learn to follow both written instructions and charts, work built-in I-cord edges, and finish things off with a two-color I-cord bind-off.
The cowl is worked flat, starting at one corner and shaped with increases and decreases before being blocked and seamed. Choose a solid and a multicolored yarn to make the geometric design your own. It's a great project for expanding your knitting skills while creating something you'll actually want to wear!
