Learn how to create i-cords with a knitting machine and then how to apply them and other pieces of fabric onto the fabric whilst still on the machine. See a variety of swatch videos of samples created for my book "Texture & 3D Effects" along with their inspiration and how to develop ideas further. There are so many exciting ways to create pattern, texture and 3D effects in machine knitting with this technique!
This workshop is slightly different to my others on offer, in that there is no zoom recording of a live workshop included.
What you get:
Demo video with commentary of how to knit i-cords and variations of i-cords.
Demo video with commentary demonstrating different ways to apply i-cords and knitted fabrics directly onto the knitting machine.
Video with various swatches I created for my book, talking a little through how they were made, what they were inspired by and how I would develop them.
Written notes with instructions, inspiration and ideas for developing your own designs as well as handy links.
I teach this workshop on a Brother knitting machine, other brand machines such as Knitmaster & Silver reeds will have slightly different button layouts, please have your machine manual handy. There are instructions included for the carriage set up to knit an i-cord which may work for some of these other models. All other methods of applying onto the machine will work with any model.
