Welcome!
We’re glad you’re here!
This course was designed to take you from blank slate to confident knitter.
Maybe you learned the skill many moons ago and need a full brush up or you’ve never touched a pair of knitting needles! Whatever the case, we’ll help you find your way through the fiber-verse, one stitch at a time.
The great thing about knitting is that by learning just a few skills, an infinite number of doors can open for you!
In this Knitting 101 course, we will guide you through types of materials, knitting basics, your first projects, and more.
Teaching others to knit is something we love to do. We cannot wait to see what you knit up!
