Hand Knitting – An Introduction

Put down the knitting needles—your hands are the only tools you need for this craft! Join us for four fun, cosy evenings where you’ll master the satisfying art of chunky hand knitting

You will learn how to create gorgeous, textured homeware and accessories using nothing but your hands and jumbo yarn. Because we work with chunky yarn, projects knit up amazingly fast, making this the perfect craft for complete beginners or anyone looking for instant creative satisfaction.

Each week, you will complete a brand-new project from start to finish, including a gorgeous cushion cover and a cosy, snood. Along the way, you will master all the essential techniques needed to knit with confidence, including:

• Casting on and casting off neatly
• Maintaining even tension for a professional finish
• The secret to creating clean, neat edges
• Seamlessly joining new balls of yarn and changing colours
• Knitting in the round
• Proper care and maintenance to keep your handmade items looking their best

Come along for a cosy, creative evening each week, unwind, and leave every session with a finished piece you can wear, use, or gift!
