I will teach you either basic knitting or basic crochet and help you get started. I am using a very simple scarf pattern for beginning knitters. And for beginner crocheters we will start with basic chain and the varying stitches and hopefully progress in the first session to a simple granny square.
I generally recommend Caron So Soft yarn which is a medium or #4 yarn. I also like Big Twist yarn, but there are many options out there.
The cost is $30.00 for the first class and after that you can feel free to drop in for help at our monthly Sticks and Strings sessions on the first Friday on the month.
Sign up and let me know whether you are just wanting to:
- Learn either knit or crochet. ($30.00 initial session)
- Just want to curl up on the couch and Get Your Yarn On (no cost)
Once you sign up, I will provide you with a copy of the Knitting or Crochet pattern I am recommending for your beginner project. We can chat if there’s something else you wish to try depending on your skill level but I am strongly recommending you use the pattern I have identified for your first project.
My availability may be dependent at times on BW production needs and I will be teaching sewing classes throughout the summer as well, so please make sure you sign up if you are coming in for a Basic Beginner lesson so I can plan accordingly. But the comfy couches in the lobby are always open for Yarnies to share their love of STICKS and STRINGS.
