Stitches Midwest was relaxed and pleasant at the Schaumburg Convention Center. The market was smaller than at other Stitches events, but the yarns and books and tools were just as tempting.
By the time Sunday afternoon rolled around, everyone was tired and suffering from information overload. It was the perfect time for Seveness Knitting—a class where we prepare our pattern by flipping a coin, and then we knit.
Seveness stands for “Suzann’s Sensational Similar Shade Scrap Stripe System,” which uses up scraps of yarn without looking like a scrap project. A former student said, “It’s like you’re creating a luxury fabric.” Well put!
Our Stitches Midwest class did such a great job, I’m thrilled to show you every single swatch they knitted.
