In this workshop, students will learn the method of Estonian inlay – a tactile technique that has the appearance of beautiful embroidery. It is created by knitting with a main yarn, and using a contrasting yarn to form decorative floats within the fabric. Participants will work on a small stockinette and simple lace swatch in the round that integrates Estonian inlay within it.

Students will ned to be comfortable with knitting, purling and casting on and off. 

Please bring the following msterials with you on the day of the workshop:

- 2 contrasting colours of DK yarn and corresponding needles to work very small circumferences in the round.
