Second session February 11, 10 am. First session was Saturday January 28, 10 am.
Fee includes instruction only, supplies (excluding pattern) bought at Sun Dragon specifically for this class eligible for 15% off at checkout upon request, in shop only (see below for supplies)
These mitts are part of our Winter MAL list focusing on cables, and a great way to learn cables! Knowledge of basic knitting is a prerequisite (Advanced Beginner level pattern: must already know knit and purl stitches). We will also be tackling “small circumference knitting”, methods of knitting in the round on either double point needles, 2 circulars, or magic loop method.
The first session will be on getting started knitting in the round, processing the pattern, and if there is time getting to the cables section. The second session will dive into the cables more in depth, as well as the thumb shaping. The class fee also covers help between sessions or after the class is over, on this project, during the drop in Friday help times. If you need to come another day just contact the shop first.
Please contact the shop (email rebecca@sundragonartandfiber.com or call 828-877-3550) to reserve your spot. We will need your name, phone number, and email.
All group events take place inside in the winter, which means we will be masked as is our shop policy. We can provide masks if you need one. If this policy does not work for you, we understand, and recommend we find a time during the warmer months when we can teach you outside.
When the weather is nice classes meet outside on the plaza and the following guidelines apply:
All will be held outside, weather permitting. We will do our best to provide shade, depending on number of attendees.
Masks are not required outside, you may wear one if you wish.
Please wear a mask when going into the shop for restroom or shopping purposes.
