Description
2 sessions
Cost: $30
Skill level: Beginner
Have you ever wished you could go to a knitting class that just dealt with fixing mistakes? Well, this is the one you've been waiting for. Spend a couple of hours making and correcting a variety of mistakes including twisted, dropped or incorrect stitches, and learning to tear back a stitch at a time or many rows at a time. Gain confidence and enjoy your knitting even more!
You will gain the most from this class if you are already comfortable with the knit and purl stitches.
Project
You will make and destroy a swatch during the workshop. Nothing to take home, sorry!
