Colour Conversations

Celebrate Knit In Public Day with us by joining a free class! Registration is required as space is limited.

There are several ways to curate a palette for a project. This session will cover a range of techniques that will help you choose colours for your next project, whether it’s striped, marled, brioche or stranded colourwork. We’ll look at how colours speak to one another, chat about tints and shades, when a black and white photograph works, and when it doesn’t work, how to combine colours from different yarn bases, and ways to create new shades when multi-stranding. From there, we’ll cover ways to make colour palettes in preparation for a project. 

Skill Level: those who are at the start of their colour journey in their knitting/crochet projects, those that would like to build on their understanding of colours, and those who are colour-curious!

Homework: notebook and pen, if you want to take notes.

Please note, the classroom is up 14 steps.

Thank you for providing this class; I enjoyed it and did learn some new tricks! I was a little disappointed that I had to leave at noon as I had made a previous commitment based on the class time slot. Next time I will leave myself a bit more wiggle room :)

The presenter was so gracious and knowledgeable. She was willing to spend her time and insights. I learned so much and came away inspired to try different colour and knit techniques.
Thank you for putting this time together!

Susan Chin is an artist and her mastery of knit & crochet are awe inspiring. She has a wealth of information that she presents in such a way, that makes you leave with confidence to try more in your own development of knit and crochet skills. And, her cookies were delicious!
Thank you Susan, you are a master teacher.
Thank you Tammy for hosting these informative sessions…it makes Numana Yarns above the rest for encouraging knit and crochet above and beyond the basics.

I really enjoyed the talk and loved seeing the samples brought by Susan. I have a history of making poor colour choices and I think I gained some valuable insights into choosing colours for future use. The talk was also interesting in a general sense, and I learned some things about yarns too! And the cookies were much appreciated. Thanks.
