SILK MASTERCLASS

The beauty in the detail. In this masterclass, we concentrate on shiny mulberry silk for hand knitting. All the techniques you learn can be applied in your projects, although the course centres on our Vala collection. The einrúm Vala Collection styles are designed for einrúm PURE silk, specifically to showcase the unique qualities of the yarn and silk.

We have experimented with numerous techniques and finer details, giving the collection a cohesive appearance and elegant finish while ensuring that the individual designs remain enjoyable and exciting to knit. Some of the techniques might be new and challenging. Through our masterclass, we aim to assist participants in enhancing their skills and discovering something both exciting and new.

THE SEVEN UNITS

Our masterclass is organised into seven units, encompassing all the special techniques and details of the various designs in the Vala collection. This includes i-cord and i-cord buttonholes, open cast-on, a rolled edge cast-on specifically developed for the collection, knitting relief patterns from charts, correcting knitting mistakes made while following the pattern, elastic and i-cord cast-off, various types of increases and decreases, short row shaping, sewing seams with mattress stitch, and much more. The teaching is provided in single and double units which can be purchased individually.

The essence of einrúm design is to focus on the joy of knitting and the sense of calm it brings. Where craftsmanship, joy and challenges are integral to the creative process, which we hope you will enjoy with us.
