Cozy Fast Knitted Mittens Workshops in January at Makers' Corner

In these classes taught by Sara Coelho-Robinson, we will learn to follow an easy pattern for cozy and fast knitted mittens! As a group we will learn how to knit using the "magic loop" method, and different techniques such as a long tail cast on, ribbing, increases, and decreases. In two classes you will be able to start and finish one mitten and then able to knit the second mitten at home. This class is ideal for adventurous beginners and those familiar with the most common stitches.
