This 2 hour workshop is designed for the absolute beginner or knitter who wants a fresh beginning. There is no better way to learn how to knit than to knit a neckwarmer. By the end of the workshop you will have learned how to make a beautiful neckwarmer you’ll be proud to wear. The yarn, Eskimo, by Garnstudio, will be provided. You can bring your own knitting needles (size 8mm, 9mm or 10mm) or they can be purchased at the class.
You will learn how to cast on, knit, purl and cast off. There will also be discussion on how the Internet is a knitter’s virtual accessory.
