DESCRIPTION
In this class we will learn about steeks, why they might be used, and how they are done. We will discuss different methods for reinforcing a steek and will get hands-on practice using the crochet reinforcement. The project for this class is a set of two colourwork coasters, knit in the round prior to class, and then steeked during the class.
