About the Event

The wrapover hack takes a shawl you already know how to knit and gives it the structure to stay where you put it. No shawl pin, no readjusting every four minutes, no admitting defeat at lunch and folding it over the back of a chair.

This session covers where the modification goes, how to work out the placement for your own shoulders and your own shawl, and how to apply it both to finished shawls sitting in a drawer and to ones still on the needles. Nicole walks through the mechanics of why the hack works, so it can be adapted to most triangular and crescent shapes — including the one you swore you'd wear more.

Every attendee leaves with a full instructional handout to work from at home. Bring a notebook if you like taking notes.
