Class Description

Description

Whether you are obsessed with beanies, or simply want to learn how to knit: our new Knitting CraftJam is a must! Learn basic stitches and make all the beanies you ever dreamed of. This knitting workshop is designed for absolute beginners, but also fun for not-so-newbies who want to have some fun and stitch with others.

Through in-class demonstrations and home assignments, students will learn the foundations of knitting – casting on, knitting, purling, simple stitch patterns, and binding off.

Students will be able to complete endless projects on their own after taking this class.

The curriculum:

1st week: Introduction to knitting:
  • Reading our basic craftjam pattern
  • Casting on and bind off
  • The knit stitch
  • The purl stitch
  • Start working on a beanie
  • Homework: Continue knitting your project at home
2nd week: Continue and Finishing Beanie:
  • Review previous week and work
  • How to fix a dropped stitch
  • Binding off
  • Weaving in ends
  • Resources for further education
This class is beginner-friendly; no experience necessary! We will have all the supplies and materials ready for you, including yarn and knitting needles.

Also, we are BYOB friendly, so bring a drink of your choice.
School Notes:
We are BYOB friendly! Crafting is paired best with your favorite drink of choice! But, you must be 21 or over. Younger? Just have a mocktail. No one will notice ;)
