Welcome to your new fun hobby! In this class, you will learn basic knitting such as casting on, binding off, knit stitch, and purl stitch. In addition, you will learn about different types of yarn, gauge, tension, reading a yarn label, and reading a pattern. You may have the opportunity to learn to correct problems as you make simple practice swatches. Together we will start a scarf project of your choice; three options will be provided. No prior experience required.

NOTE: Please bring a pair of knitting needles, size 7 or 8 (4.5mm or 5mm) and one skein of worsted weight yarn in a light or bright color to practice knitting skills. Your local store is a great option to provide you with some great beginner yarn and needle suggestions.
