Always wanted to learn how to knit but didn’t know where to start? This class is for you!
We’ll teach you everything you need to know — from how to hold your needles and yarn, to finishing your very first wearable project: a cozy pair of fingerless mitts using the Easy Fingerless Mitts pattern by Roxanne Richardson.
