We’ll begin with learning concepts on how to make the English Driving Cap.

 

Saturday morning from 8:00 – noon
Breakfast:  Coffee bar, Juice Bar, Yogurt, Oatmeal Mix (my own recipe), Fresh Fruit, Breads, Eggs, Bacon, Biscuits and Gravy

Choose your yarn and cast on for The English Driving Cap.
What you need to bring:
#6 US needles  DPN or 2 circular needles
#6 US 24” circular needle
1 Center marker (denotes the back of hat)
3 unique markers (denotes left side/odd rows)
32 non-unique markers
Tapestry needle
2 -12” scrap yarn worsted

Like all of my classes, this is not hard, but this is challenging.  New concepts will be used throughout this process.  If you don’t already know how to M1L, M1R, M1, Short rows, Decreases, don’t worry – these stitches are easy to learn and execute.

This cap takes me about 12 hours to make.  So, we should be done with it by Sunday Afternoon.


Saturday – rest of the day/evening

Lunch:  Butternut Squash Soup, Salad, Make your own Sandwich – Ham, Turkey, Chips, Pop, Cookies
We will continue working on the English Driving Cap throughout the day.

Dinner:  Chicken/Paneer Korma, Cumin Rice, Naan, Kheer **No Heat added to any dish!
We will continue working on the English Driving Cap throughout the evening.
(I can easily be talked into setting up the Karaoke machine, too.)

 

Sunday morning
Breakfast:  Coffee bar, Juice Bar, Yogurt, Oatmeal Mix (my own recipe), Fresh Fruit, Breads, Eggs, Bacon, Homemade Biscuits and Gravy

We’ll continue working on the English Driving Cap and wrap up the event with lunch.  You are welcome to stay as long as you’d like on Sunday!

Do you want to bring your significant other who will NOT be taking classes?
Easy peasy:
1. Do NOT put in 2 adults when making reservation (it assumes both will be taking classes), Put in 1 adult
2. Check SPOUSE on the extras page before finishing reservation.

  • Linen, Memberships are included — no need to check those in the extras box.
  • IF you were routed here from scknittingguild.com,  YOU will get an error after processing the reservations.  It is ok, it is trying to route you back to inthewoodscampground.com.
  • You should receive a confirmation letter within a day of your reservation.

Any Questions, I am just a phone call away.
