Liat Gat of KNITFreedom is known for her great videos that take the mystery out of knitting techniques. She’s done great video libraries of cast ons and binds off that are super references for when you want to try a new technique or find the perfect beginning or ending for a project.
Her latest course with tutorials and videos is called Fantastic Mosaics. Mosaic knitting is a kind of colorwork where you slip stitches strategically to make a two-color pattern in your knit fabric while only working with one color yarn at a time.
It’s really easy and fun and I don’t think most knitters use this technique enough.
Liat’s course takes you through the basics, with learning swatches, tips and techniques, up to more advanced projects that use charts (don’t worry, they’re still pretty easy). The course includes a pattern of hers and links to other free patterns that use the technique.
This week I’m giving away this course to one of you! It’s a web or PDF based course with videos, and it’s a great way to learn this technique. The course is valued at $43.99.

Mosaic knitting looks like fun. Barbara Walker’s book on mosaic knitting is the only one of hers that I don’t own. Thanks for the giveaway!
I follow Liat and get her emails. I wish I could afford her courses, I would buy them all! I would love to win this, my colorwork is horrible and I need visual assistance to learn. Thanks for the giveaways. I cannot follow you on Facebook, as I do not use it. Thanks again,
I knitted a mosiac cowl once and enjoyed it. I would love to win this class.

I would love to take her course. This would be something fun to learn.
My first step in spring cleaning is washing my kitchen and dining room floors. I plan to do that this week.
Mosaic knitting is on my list!!!
Liat is an awesome teacher!
I’ve pretended to do some spring cleaning, but mostly I just kind of go through stuff and toss out the junk mail, sort all the magazines and books together, put the yarn into big plastic bins. Every little bit helps! 🙂
Sounds like a great video. I would follow you but I do not use facebook or other social media.
My Spring cleaning always starts with the kitchen cupboards!
Ditto. Mosaic knitting is on my list!
My spring cleaning includes sorting and organizing my yarn. I also must totally clean out my fridge. I have had mosaic knitting on my want to learn technique.
I loved the little teaser Liat gave of this course! I hoped to take it but yarn was calling my name and I spent all my extra cash 🙂
I was excited to see this course when it was recently released. Congrats to Liat and thanks to you both for the giveaway!
I’ve done a some mosaic knitting – I’d love to win the class and learn more about it.
Well, should have read the rafflecopter prompt before posting – my spring cleaning for today is going to be weeding the garden and getting it ready to plant some seeds.
Did most of my cleaning already, before the Passover holiday. Thanks so much for the giveaway and the chance to win!
I’ve been trying to add more colors to my knitting and this mosaics video course is just what I need!
