Learn or perfect the Aran style of knitting.
Presented by the Cultural Center of Cape Cod on five Fridays, beginning April 2, from 10am-noon. Beautifully patterned Aran Knitting, named after the Aran Islands off the west coast of Ireland from County Galway and County Clare, is often found in socks, hats, vests, scarves, mittens, afghans, pillow covers, and, most commonly, sweaters. In this class, students will learn how to knit various Aran patterns, including Seed Stitch, Moss Stitch, Various Cables, Large Bobble Rib, Hourglass Cable and Bobbles, Honeycomb, Trinity Stitch or Blackberry Stitch, Traveling Lines and Twisted Stitches and Openwork Patterns. Students will also create 12” squares that can be sewn together into an Aran Sampler Afghan. Come learn to create wearable heirlooms rooted in the traditions of the Emerald Isle! CDC guidelines, including mask-wearing and social distancing, will be observed.
