2022 Cindwood Zoomin' and Loomin' Masterclass Series Begins!


I am very happy to announce that this coming Saturday, April 2, 2022 will be the start of this year's Masterclass Series. 
The topics this year were chosen by my wonderful students from 2021. We had an end-of-year meet last November and came up with 5 great topics.

The class dates and topics are: 

April 2, 2022: Creating shapes on your loom with short row shaping; short rows, wraps, triangles, squares and circles. Class pattern: Leafing, a short row asymmetrical shawl with a short row lace flounce.

May 7, 2022: Basics of shifting stitches on your loom; loom knit lace, yarn overs, knit and purl togethers. Class pattern: Dandelion Shawlette, a wide crescent shaped shawlette with an open lace edging.

June 11, 2022: Special techniques for loom knitters; slipped stitches, lifted stitches and cables. Class will feature a number of stitch patterns for each technique.

September 10, 2022: Sequence knitting for loom knitters; a fun and easy technique to give you beautiful, reversible fabrics on your loom. Class pattern: Cake & Ice Cream Cowl; a cowl with an adjustable sequence to fit your peg count.

October 8, 2022: All about yarn for loom knitters; fibers, weight, texture and felting. Class pattern: Simple Felted Purses.

All classes will be presented live on Saturday at 9 am PST, 10 am MST, 11 am CST and 12 noon EST. Registration is $10.00. A recording will be made and sent to all registrants along with the class pattern and class materials (a mini-handbook on the class topic.) Register via Renee's etsy shop.

Classes are presented in accessible format for visually and hearing challenged loom knitters.

The 2021 Masterclass Series is also available in recorded form. 

Hope to see you on Saturday!
