CLASS: Make a double knit button band

Learn the art of creating a double-knit button band to help you finish your Step-by-Step Cardigan! This Spring, the Knerdy Knitters and Crocheters of the SFV are leading the #StepByStepKAL, for both step-by-step patterns by Florence Miller, aka Handmade by Florence on IG and YouTube.

In this in-person class, we will cover the three steps to making a double-sided stockinette fabric, applied to the neckline of your cardigan.
1. Picking up stitches
2. Italian cast on in 1x1 ribbing
3. Double knitting

Materials will not be provided. We will be following the pattern for this class, and the accompanying video tutorial.

You will need:
Circular needles in the same size you used for the ribbing of the cardigan, or 1 size smaller, with a LONG cord, at least 32 inches.
Another pair of circular needles in the same size, or a double pointed needle in the same size (cord length does not matter).
Your Step by Step Cardigan (the body must be finished)
OR, a 4x4 inch, 10x10cm swatch knitted in stockinette, or stocking stitch.
at least 8 stitch markers (for button holes)
