MACHINE KNITTING FUNDAMENTALS: KNIT A NECKTIE
26 November @ 10:00 am - 3:30 pm
Learn the fundamentals of machine knitting and make your own lambswool necktie in this beginner friendly workshop with Coyle Studio.
Coyle Studio is an independent knitwear brand founded by Izzy Coyle. With a focus on craftsmanship and conscious design, each piece is created in her Manchester-based studio using deadstock or locally sourced yarns. Her practise is a celebration of colour, process, and thoughtful making.
In the workshop we will cover: threading up the machine, casting on, knitting a row, adding in different colours, increasing + decreasing and casting off. We will then use all the skills you have just learnt to knit your own necktie in a colour of your choosing.
You’ll leave with a portfolio of samples showcasing the skills you have learnt, a finished necktie ready to wear and the foundations of machine knitting to build on further.
No need to bring anything with you – all equipment and materials will be provided. No previous knitting experience is required!
Start time: 10am
Workshop duration: 5-6 hours including a lunch break
