Mastering Estonian Roosimine with Aleks Byrd

Roosimine is a glorious Estonian inlay technique that creates the appearance of embroidery, by using intentional floats in contrasting yarn on the right side of your knitting. It’s the perfect technique to add some embellishment to your knitting, if you want to try something a little different. The name Roosimine translates to “decorating with roses”, which comes from a style of short stitch embroidery done on the Estonian island of Muhu. Aleks Byrd is here to show Students how to knit a small swatch in the technique, during class.
