KNITTING CLASSES

BEGINNING KNITTING CLASSES

If you are new to knitting and want to learn or if it has been a few years since you have picked up yarn and needles, these classes are a great way to get into knitting.

INTRODUCTION TO KNITTING PART ONE

In introduction to knitting, you will learn how to start knitting (knit, purl, cast-on, bind-off) by making a sampler using bulky weight yarn. For those who don't have time for a full beginning class, this will get you up and knitting or will refresh your knitting skills from years gone by. By Cheryl Murray.

INTRODUCTION TO KNITTING PART TWO

You've learned to knit and purl, now it's time to add some more techniques to your knitting bag. In this class, we'll review the basics and learn an alternate casto-on (or two), how to increase and decrease, create rigging, and even make a simple cable. We'll also talk about pattern reading and the importance of gauge. By Cheryl Murray.
