3-Day Class: September 16, 23 and 30 from 12-1:30 pm  There is little more satisfying to a new knitter (or even a veteran) than wearing something you knit. Learn to knit while making a pair of fingerless mitts. These cute mitts also make great gifts. The pattern helps teach you all the basics – cast on, knit, purl, bind off, and sewing together. Once you know the basics you’ll be on the road to an endless array of possibilities.

 

Note: This class will have three sessions (September 16th from 12-1:30 pm; September 23rd from 12-1:30 pm; September 30th from 12-1:30 pm). The class fee includes all three sessions and the Zoom link that will be sent in the confirmation email will be used for all three sessions.

  • Supply List:

    Size 8 US (5mm) knitting needles, straight preferred over circular needles; about 100 yards or 2 oz. of worsted weight wool yarn (you may substitute acrylic yarn if you are allergic to wool). Wool yarn is preferred as it is easier for beginners to use and the results tend to be more satisfactory.

     

    If you prefer, an optional kit with needles and yarn is available from Harps and Thistles for $15 plus shipping via this link. https://harpsandthistles.com/products/learn-to-knit-kit?_pos=1&_sid=bf6907262&_ss=r

    Please order at least one week prior to class to allow time for shipping. If you are ordering less than one week prior to class, you are welcome to join the class as scheduled and knit along with the recording once your kit arrives.
