Advanced Colorwork Technique Class

This is an in-person class at Fuzzy Goat! Please review our class policies before enrolling. Adults only please

We've had a lot of requests to learn the Ladderback Jaquard method of carrying long floats for colorwork. Melissa and Cadence have used this technique for the Drawing Sweater and the Barberry Sweater. Embrace the challenge of managing long floats with the clever ladderback jacquard method, adding a layered dimension to your knitting skills while knitting a headband. (our photo is of the inside of the Barberry Sweater so that you can see the technique in action.) Please be sure and read the skills you need for the class.

Easy, seamless, and beautiful, the ladderback jacquard technique will improve the tension of your stranded knitting while allowing you to span much larger areas between stitches. This knitting method adds stretch to your floats while preventing the alternate color from peeking through, and can be applied to nearly any stranded knitting project

Return Policy

To protect you from odd dye lots, odors, or allergens, yarn may not be returned. We want to be sure that each skein you get has come direct from the dyer, to the shop to you. Full priced items other than yarn may be exchanged for shop credit if Fuzzy Goat receives the item within 2 weeks of when you received the item. Curated boxes are not eligible for returns  

To be eligible for an exchange, there must be proof of purchase, your item must be unused and in the same condition that you received it. It must also be in the original packaging and in re-saleable condition when Fuzzy Goat receives it. Shop credit will be for the items purchased and not inclusive of shipping. We recommend insuring your package as we cannot credit returns for items that do not arrive.

If you are requesting to cancel an order, within two hours of your order and we have not wound your yarn and it has not yet reached our Fulfillment Maven, we will issue you shop credit for your whole order. (We incur quite a few non-refundable fees from our merchant services as soon as your order is placed)

Thanks for your understanding.
