Knitting For Total Beginners

Saturdays, 9 – 11 am

September 29 – October 13 (3 weeks) $60

If you’ve always wanted to learn to knit, this is your chance, while making something fun in the process. We’ll learn the basics of the classic, English-style knitting method that’s been used for centuries to create everything from scarves and sweaters to socks and mittens. Students will learn to cast on, knit, increase, decrease and bind off. Tips on reading a pattern, tool selection and yarn choice are included. Skill level: Beginner, no previous knitting experience required.

Bring to class: one skein of bulky-weight yarn in a light, solid color and a pair of size 10 knitting needles.  Suggestion:  try to find wooden (such as bamboo) or plastic needles, NOT aluminum ones.  (Aluminum needles are slippery and much harder to handle!)
