Description
This workshop will teach you the basics of the waffle stitch, getting you confident in the techniques used, so that you can go on to make a project of any size, using any yarn you desire. You will only need one ball to learn the technique in the workshop.
You will need to bring along your own yarn and appropriate hook for this workshop. Yarn thickness does not matter for learning the skills in this workshop. Choose a yarn that you are comfortable working with, and can easily identify your stitches. Fluffy or textured yarns will make it harder to see your stitches as you’re working them. The waffle stitch tends to be quite a tight stitch, so you may want to go up a hook size, compared to the size recommended on your yarn’s ball band.
This sample was made with Hayfield Bonus Chunky, and a 7mm hook.
If you’d like advice of which yarn to purchase to use in this workshop, please arrive a few minutes early and advice can be given in the shop.
