Fixing Mistakes - No More Fear! Cost: $25.00
Saturday, October 19, 2024 9am-11am Teacher: Tempe Croke
One of the best skills any knitter can have is to know how to read your knitting and how to recognize and fix mistakes. It can be frustrating having to wait until you can get to the yarn shop or another knitter friend for help before you can finish your project! It can make you afraid to make a mistake! This class will give you the basic skills that can help build your confidence and enjoyment of your knitting. Learn how to read your knitting, correct dropped or twisted stitches, take your work back several stitches or several rows, and put in a "lifeline".

Top-down Magic Loop Socks Cost: $40.00
Saturdays, November 23 and Dec 7, 2024, 9-11am Teacher: Tempe Croke
The Magic Loop technique allows you to knit small projects in the round without using double pointed needles. You can use the Magic Loop for mittens, socks, handwarmers, hats, sleeves, nearly any project where you would normally use dpns!
In this class, you will learn the Magic Loop technique and knit a pair of worsted weight socks starting at the cuff. We like to use a thicker yarn for these first socks so that the work goes faster and you can see what you are doing much easier. (After that, you can take what you've learned and knit all sorts of fun socks in thinner gauge yarns as well!)
