HOMEWORK

Here you go - your homework!!!! If you have any questions, you can email me and if I don't know - I'll ask Ren!! :-)

1. KNITTED BUNNY:





Cast on approximately 28 - 30 stitches. The larger your needles - the less cast on stitches you'll need. You want to end up with about a six (6) inch square. You will knit the first row and then purl the second row. Continue the alternate rows until you have achieved your six (6) inch square.

The link for the entire project is:

2. Practice the following stitches by making a small swatch - you have the instructions for both of these stitches:

a. Practice ribbing: k2p2


b. Practice seed stitch k1p2. Second row - knit the purls and purl the knits.


3. Start deciding on a project that you would like to knit and go ahead and get the materials.

4. For those of you that are knitting the chemo caps, knit 8 inches and stop and we will change to the double pointed needles at the next class.

GOOD LUCK AND DON'T WORRY IF YOU GET STUMPED - WE WILL HELP YOU AT THE NEXT CLASS (at least Ren will - I'll take a picture of her doing it - LOL).
