Beginners' Knitting with Hilary Snell
Advertisement
Learn the knitting basics in a workshop led by Scandinavia House’s veteran knitter Hilary Snell!
The long-term benefits of knitting are widely recognized. Once you know the basics, knitting can create what’s called a “flow state,” similar to meditation. Knitting uses both sides of the brain, making it a healthy way to focus while also stretching your brain muscles. And there are only two stitches in knitting — by combining those, you can create hundreds of designs and patterns!
In this class designed for those who have never knit before, or beginners who would like to practice their stitches, you’ll learn to cast on, knit and purl. After learning these skills, you’ll be able to practice independently to make any projects you wish. Participants should bring size 9 US straight needles and some worsted weight yarn — we’ll provide a safe and friendly atmosphere to learn a new life-long skill!
Upcoming sessions take place on Tuesdays May 12 and May 19, from 5:00-7:00 PM; $45 per session ($45 ASF Members).
