Time: 10:00 am – 3:00 pm
Instructor: Barbara Landry
Location: Scotsville School of Crafts, 2234 Strathlorne-Scotsville Road, Scotsville

In this one‑day design workshop, participants will learn how to make intentional design decisions, understand the relationship between materials and structure, and apply general design principles to a wide range of knitted garments. They will learn how to make modifications and receive an introduction to pattern-making and design software. The workshop uses a toque‑style hat in natural fibres as the foundation for exploring knitwear design.

A one‑hour virtual follow‑up session will be offered two weeks after the workshop for participants who would like additional guidance.
