Learn to Knit
|
We have designed a "Learn to Knit" series of 4 lessons. With the purchase of a materials kit, these lessons are offered for free!
Our Learn to Knit series will give someone all the skills necessary to knit simple garments all by themselves. If you have never touched a pair of knitting needles in your life, or if you are a beginner who has done some knitting, but feels like they need a little formal guidance in order to take their craft to the next level, these lessons are designed with you in mind. Start at the beginning, or feel free to jump into these lessons at whichever point you think is appropriate. We're happy to help determine which lesson to take first if you're not quite sure. Just give us a call, or stop by the shop anytime to chat in person. These lessons are designed for you to work through them at your pace so that you can fit them into your schedule however works best for you. Attend them back-to-back, or not! Homework will be given at the end of each lesson, so please make time for a little knitting on your own every day in order to maximize retention of the skills covered in each lesson. Skills Covered... Lesson 1: Knitted Cast-On and the Knit Stitch Lesson 2: Binding Off, Knitted Cast-On, the Knit Stitch, and the Purl Stitch Lesson 3: Binding Off, Reading a Pattern, Knitted Cast-On, Joining to Work in the Round, the Knit Stitch, and the Purl Stitch Lesson 4: Brief Ravelry.com Introduction, Decreasing, and Weaving in Ends Materials Kit...
