Join Nancy Bush in Provence for a one week workshop
celebrating knitting and color! You will be inspired by the light, scents,
tastes, and marvelous colors of this most lovely part of France.
Our workshop will focus on the history of color,
where certain colors are found in nature, the symbolism of colors from
various cultures and some color theory; what works and why. We will have
time to knit in the luxurious surroundings of Le Lavandin, a private guest
house located near Avignon and a heartbeat away from the Luberon.
Our project will be a pair of socks, designed by
Nancy especially for this week, done in a selection of colors. Techniques
will include a unique cast on, an interesting heel and toe shaping and
ways to control color in your knitting. Enjoy the beauty, culture and
food of Southern France and spend a fascinating week learning more about
color and knitting in one of the world’s most interesting places.
This five day workshop includes six nights of lodging,
all breakfasts, several lunches, one dinner and at least two field trips
that will complement the course work. The price is €1,600.00 per person
based on double occupancy. There will be a materials fee for yarn, all
you need to bring are needles and a desire to experience the hill towns,
the markets and the unique light of Provence. |
