Sheepy Steeky Coasters (Skill Building)

Intermediate Class

You dream of steeking, but you’re afraid to take the plunge?  The Sheepy Steeky Coasters are a great introduction to this technique!  They feature steeks that are stabilized by crocheted stitches, and then cut!  It works!  Trust us!!  You'll be cutting away on your knits in no time!  ;)

Skills Required:  This is an Intermediate class.  Students should be able to knit and purl proficiently AND be comfortable with colorwork.  These skills will not be taught during this class.
