What are you knitting at the moment?<br />
I have several items on the go! This evening I have been<br />
making a mug cosy from Softyak DK as a project for<br />
a <strong>Rowan</strong> workshop, Introduction To Cable Knitting for<br />
Yarn O’Clock in Mold.<br />
Which subject/technique do you enjoy<br />
teaching the most and why?<br />
I enjoy so many topics/techniques. Advanced workshops<br />
are wonderful but I love teaching beginners. Taking<br />
someone who has never crocheted or who has forgotten<br />
from their first faltering stitches to their first piece of crochet<br />
work is very rewarding.<br />
What do you enjoy the most about teaching<br />
workshops?<br />
I get great pleasure from seeing people develop their skills<br />
at all levels of ability.<br />
Are you planning any new workshop subjects<br />
for <strong>2018</strong>?<br />
Cable knitting and cable ‘Aran’ style crochet plus colour<br />
work in both knitting and crochet.<br />
Melanie Boocock<br />
Melanie is an experienced workshop tutor teaching<br />
knitting, crochet and sewing workshops. Melanie<br />
teaches a wide range of subjects from ‘Learn to’<br />
through to more advanced techniques including<br />
Professional Finishing, Sock knitting and even Fair<br />
Isle and Steeking.<br />
What is your favourite <strong>Rowan</strong> yarn?<br />
I love the <strong>Summer</strong>lite cottons, 4ply and DK. There is a<br />
gorgeous colour palette. They are great for knitting and crochet.<br />
