Knitting 201: Hats is designed to further your knitting skills by expanding on Knitting 101: Knitting for Beginners or for someone who is proficient in knitting garter stitch. In this workshop, Billie Theide will work with students to practice reading knitting patterns, determine size, gauge, cast on in the round using those mysterious double pointed knitting needles, learn to work magic loop on a long circular, stay on track with stitch markers, knit rib stitch, work garter and stockinette for visual interest, decrease, and correct mistakes. Additionally, the class will talk about pom poms, blocking and caring for hand knits.
$95/person for two class sessions (Oct. 25 and Nov. 1). Supplies not included. Registration closes Oct. 18 or when capacity is reached. All sales are final.
