This class is intended to be taken after the Introduction to Knitting class. You'll learn how to bind off (perfect for finishing your stitch marker holder, if you haven't yet!), the long-tail cast-on method, and the purl stitch. Sign up for our free Friday Stitch Nights to deepen your practice or consider taking our Wednesday Knitting Support classes, which are 40% off if you sign up for four different dates. Materials: Please bring your own materials and even extras if you have them. Rachel will have some available to share during class if you're missing anything. I'm hoping to avoid anyone having to buy anything; please bring what you can and plan to share. DK yarn and knitting needles that produce a fabric you like. The yarn and needles from Introduction to Knitting would work perfectly. Prerequisites: You must be able to knit without assistance. Sadly, Rachel will have to ask you to sit out class if you can't, as there won't be enough time to go over the knit stitch and still cover everything else. Refund and Cancellation Policy1.

Instructor Bio Rachel is the owner of Yarning Fiber Arts. She taught herself how to knit in 2001 and has averaged several hours of knitting every day since 2018. Though she is accomplished in many kinds of knitting, her favorite is lace shawls--the more intricate, the better! Knitting is a spiritual practice for her and has brought her infinite peace and joy.
