If you need to take a break from your routine, take a moment for yourself, and disconnect from the world of multitasking, this class is perfect for you! Our Learn to Knit class is a great class to start your magical knitting journey — or to refresh your skills. Along the way, you will discover the fun and fascination of knitting, while creating your very own fingerless hand warmers.
SKILLS COVERED —
Learn about the basics of yarn, needles, gauge, and swatches.
Learn how to cast on and the knit stitch.
Cast off a project and weave in ends. Plus we will discuss how you can block your pieces and care for your handmade garments.
It has been demonstrated that knitting helps to calm down, organize ideas, thoughts and emotions, learn to focus your attention on the present moment, and also exercise their brain!
EXPERIENCE REQUIRED —
None! It is a beginners’ class, so you don’t need to have any previous knitting experience.
MATERIALS INCLUDED —
The Botanic Wool
Bamboo needles
Tapestry needle
PLUS a step-by-step written guide to complete the Eva Fingerless Mittens with links to video tutorials to remember what you've learned!
(you’ll be able to take all materials home after class — YAY!)
ABOUT THE CLASS —
The class takes 2 1/2 hours.
Due to Covid-19, we require staff and customers to wear a mask during the lesson. Your seat will be at an appropriate distance from the other participant. Unfortunately, due to COVID, we are not offering any food during the workshop (what a bummer!). To create a safe and inclusive learning space, we're asking all students, teaching artists, and staff to wear masks at all times while they are indoors. We are also asking students and teaching artists to show proof of vaccination or a negative COVID test (can be at home, rapid, or PCR) within 2 days of their in-person class. We want to assure you, we are frequently disinfecting high contact surfaces and have hand sanitizers for customers to use. We are doing everything in our power to keep you safe.
