Knitting for Beginners 101

Learn to knit a scarf, start to finish! In the first class session, learn the knit stitch and how to cast-on and knit a basic scarf. We will concentrate on getting the stitches right and learn how to fix mistakes. (The time period between the two class sessions is your time to knit the majority of the scarf, bringing it close to a finishing point). We will use the second class session to learn the purl stitch and also finish the scarf - binding off, adding fringe and weaving in the ends. We will learn the basics of knitting terminology and the abbreviation. Students will learn Continental knitting, purling, casting on and binding off.  Open to Students age 13 to Adults.
