Join us for an introduction to knitting. This class is intended for absolute beginners, but those who are still new to knitting could also benefit. Knitting is self-care time, a creative practice, and an opportunity for meditation...plus it's fun! Gather around the table to learn one of the ancient fiber arts. We will learn the knit stitch and work on a stitch marker holder as your first project, with instruction on how to start a scarf as your second project. After the class, sign up for our free Friday Stitch Nights to deepen your practice.
