About this Event
Master the "gold standard" of needlepoint in a cozy, focused setting. Whether you’re looking to perfect your tension or finally understand the "poles and steps" of a canvas, this deep dive is for you.
Join Ashli of Lucy Lane Needlepoint for an intimate, 1.5-hour workshop dedicated entirely to the Basketweave stitch. Often called the most important stitch in needlepoint, Basketweave provides the durability and structure your canvases deserve—but it can be tricky to master on your own!
In this workshop, we will cover:
- How to identify the "grain" of your canvas (Steps vs. Poles).
- Techniques for maintaining even tension and preventing canvas distortion.
- The "do's and don'ts" of starting and stopping threads in a basketweave pattern.
What’s Included in Your Ticket:
- The Practice Kit: A blank practice canvas and a thread card, a pair of tapestry scissors, and a project bag.
- Expert Instruction: Hands-on guidance in a small group of only 6 participants.
- The Lucy Lane Stitch Guide: A takeaway tip sheet to keep in your project bag.
- Special Perk: All attendees will receive an exclusive 10% coupon for their first Lucy Lane canvas or kit purchase!
What to Bring: Just bring yourself and we will take care of the rest!
