$45, February 22, 10:30 am. All Saturday classes are advanced beginner, which means already knowing basic knowledge of the craft (casting on, knitting, and purling).
The Starry Night Mittens by Karolina Adamczyk are a great project to start or improve your skills of colorwork, reading charts, and small-circumference knitting. We will work on all these skills in the first class. See notes below on prep work if you can already knit in the round on either double points, magic loop, or 2 circulars.

Project classes in 2025 will include a Saturday main class, with optional followup session times if you need further assistance. The number of follow-up sessions will depend on the size of the project, all are $12/hour. You can always come to a Friday drop in help session for $12/hour if you have attended the initial class!
The follow-up session for the Starry Night Mitts is Wednesday, March 5, anytime from 2-4, or any drop-in Friday time.
