Knit 201: Beyond the Basics
Saturday, February 5th
3:30-5:30 p.m.
Okay, so you can cast on, knit, purl and bind off. What's next? This session will be devoted to increasing, decreasing and learning to knit in the round. After this session, knitting a hat or a pair of mittens would be the natural next step.
One 2-hour session, $25.00.
Materials included.
Mittens
Tuesdays, February 8th & 15th
6-8 p.m.
(only 1 spot left!)
Mittens make great beginning-level projects. In this class, we'll learn how to knit in the round, increase, decrease and pick up stitches. You may choose whether you'd like to knit these mittens with worsted or bulky weight yarn.
Two 2-hour sessions, $30.00.
Materials not included.*
Finishing Techniques
Friday, February 18th
4-6 p.m.
One of the most important aspects of knitting isn't the actual knitting-it's the sewing, seaming & wrestling that some cleverly call "finishing". Knowing how to match up the proper techniques insures overall knitting success. This session will put you at ease, leaving you to create pieces you're proud to call hand-knit.
One 2-hour session, $25.00.
Materials included.
Socks!
Saturdays, February 19th, 26th & March 5th
3-5 p.m.
Ever wonder why it is this project is so popular with knitters these days? They're fun, they're portable, they're relatively inexpensive....in our minds, they're the perfect knitting project. Once you've braved socks, there's nothing you can't knit!
Three 2-hour sessions, $45.00.
Materials not included.*
Magic Loop Socks
Mondays, February 21st & 28th
3-5 p.m.
The Magic Loop is a truly "magical" method of knitting in the round on one 40-inch circular needle. Once you've mastered this technique, you can apply it to any project that requires knitting in the round. This time, we're using the Magic Loop to knit socks. Goodbye forever, double-pointed needles!
Two 2-hour sessions, $30.00.
Materials not included.*
Thrummed Mittens
Fridays, February 25th & March 4th
2-4 p.m.
Thrummed mittens are the perfect project for the fiber enthusiast--you get to incorporate both yarn and fiber into the same project! Not unlike "plain" mittens, these hand warmers are made by tucking little tufts of spinning fiber into your knitting so that when you stick your hand inside, it's like a warm, puffy cloud!
Two 2-hour sessions, $30.00.
Materials not included.*
