Experienced or lapsed knitters are welcome, as well as those who have completed a beginner class. Bring a project you'd like to start or one that's been sitting in the closet for years, as well as pesky problems and... let's knit! No group projects, no plan, just enjoy the simple act of knitting.

Beginners, experienced or lapsed knitters are welcome.  Learn to knit from the first stitch, master new stitches like lace and cables, or receive help with a project. Beginner patterns will be available, such as fingerless gloves, cowls and a toy stuffed rabbit.  If you are beyond beginner, please bring your supplies and a pattern on which you will work and receive help in class.

In this two-session workshop, students will learn a variation of kumihimo, a traditional Japanese braiding technique, to make a beautiful beaded necklace. Using a foam weaving disc, we will braid seven strands of cords and beads to create the necklace, which we will finish with a chain and clasp. Although the braid is easy to learn and works up quickly, the resulting piece is impressive. No jewelry-making experience is required.
