Beginning Knitting
with Kristine Matthews
Course Description: There is so much more to knitting than just Knit 1 and Purl 2. Come join us to learn the basic knit stitch and purl stitch and expand those skills to include casting on, increases, and decreases. Once you learn these building blocks, you can make scarves, sweaters, shawls, blankets, and so much more. This is a 6-week class. A class supplies kit can be purchased for $20.
Class Leader Bio(s): Kristine Matthews initially learned to knit in a junior high school home economics class and she picked it back up when she was pregnant with her second child. That was 22 years ago and today she’s rarely without a pretty yarn and needles somewhere close by.
Notes: This is a 6-week class meeting January 16, 23, 30 February 6, 13, and 20. The class requires around 200 yards of worsted weight yarn (preferably not cotton) and a pair of size 8 straight and/or circular needles. You have the option of purchasing these supplies from me on the first day of class for $20.
