The Yarn Company
Upcoming Classes in NYC

Instructor (Barbara) was very helpful and patient!

Well... the actual learning how to knit part of the class was good. However, there were some obstacles to getting to that part. We were told we had to purchase materials for the class at the shop.. but when we arrived they only had one color of yarn available and let's just say I could tell why it was the only one left. So I am not too excited about my finished project. Also, they were not expecting me. I signed up over a week before and somehow too many students were booked for the class. Also it was quite warm in the studio. For someone who is always cold, I broke a sweat knitting.

Barbara was the instructor! I got a great first class at the Yard School! Barbara has a great friendly, outgoing, encouraging approach to teach beginners like my fellow classmate and someone who is more advance, like myself. I was not bored at any moment, I was not waiting for her. She allowed time for me to try what I just learned and came back in to review my work. Thank you Barbara! you are an amazing lady.

Class was larger than teacher expected, so she had less time to give each individual student. Most displeasing - we were required to buy yarn and needles from the store. However, the weight of yarn needed for the project only bright yellow was available for purchase. Both me and friend had to purchase a different weight of yarn - to make the project work because we could not bare paying $30 for a terrible yellow color.

Jasmine Pai was amazing! I have 6 college degrees and she is one of the best teachers I have ever had.

What a great place! Kind, patient instructors and so much yarn to chose from. I've been a knitting machine since I left (and by machine I mean I'm slowly chipping away at my first piece). Can't wait to go back and learn more!

Awesome

I thought the teacher was very kind and helpful, I feel like I learned so much!

Great teacher

The teacher was super helpful and patient. I will definitely take another class pretty soon.

Had a wonderful time, beautiful quant store with just as beautiful yarn through out the store. Instructor was friendly and patient with me, I was able to learn what I need and what I went there to learn and came home to practice. I can happily say I'm on my way to making a wonderful scarf! Will go back and recommend it to friends and family.

Very helpful, clear and willing to explain as many times you need Instructor. Love the class

I enjoyed the class. The instructor was helpful. She tried to help each person in the class. I would have liked the class to be longer so i could learn more about knitting.

The instructor was very nice but didn't teach the basics well. Having never knitted before, I needed to know how to hold the needles, etc. She wasn't able to explain things effectively. I'd like to take another class but I'll look for a different location.

Teacher was disorganized and did not have time to provide an overview for each student. Was not a good use of time and left feeling like I did not learn anything new. YouTube videos are more helpful than this class.

There was no actual instruction.

Great, patient instructor.

This was a great class. There were only three people in attendance, so it was easy to get hands on help. Jasmine was a fantastic teacher and I look forward to learning more! Note: as the description mentions, you are required to buy your own yarn and needles from the store (no outside materials). The thick yarn runs approx. $25 and the needles are around $15. Hope that is helpful for someone! Thanks again!

Great class. Knowledgeable and friendly teacher. I learned exactly what I wanted

Great beginner class-very patient instructor and I'm so excited that I know how to knit now!
