Join Britt Ardakani, lifelong knitter with a relaxed teaching style will guide you through making a triangular scarf or a hat.
This class is for absolute beginners and people who haven't knitted for years and want a refresher. You will meet two times, Thursday, March 19 and Thursday, March 26. You will learn the following essential knitting skills:
1. Cast on
2. Cast off
3. Increasing
4. Decreasing
5. Garter stitch
6. I-cord edging
7. Reading a simple pattern
8. Knitting on circular needles
Britt will supply a skein of a soft wool yarn for each knitter in your choice of neutral colors. Your needles will also be supplied.
The class is held in the Norway House Kaffeebar, during our happy hour. You are welcome to bring a drink or food from the Kaffebar into the class.
You will first knit a swatch, a small square for practicing the stitches you are learning. When you feel confident, Britt will show you how to read a pattern and to make a small scarf.
Please order the downloadable pattern from Petite Knit: https://www.petiteknit.com/en/collections/digitale-opskrifter/products/sophie-scarf?variant=39839447777335
We will be happy to print your pattern out for you if needed.
If you would prefer to knit a hat, you can do that instead! Just tell Britt which you would like to do on the first day of class.
