Makit Together: The Magic of Illusion Knitting

Discover the textile magic of illusion knitting! Also known as shadow knitting, this fascinating technique uses simple knit and purl stitches combined with two contrasting yarn colors to create a hidden image. When viewed from the front, your project looks like simple, classic stripes. But tilt it to the side, and a secret design magically appears before your eyes!
In this workshop, you will master the secrets behind this optical illusion. We will deconstruct how garter stitch ridges block stockinette stitches to hide images in plain sight. You will leave class with the confidence to read illusion charts, manage two colors at once, and create your own mind-bending knitwear.
This class is for those who already know how to knit and purl.
