Private Knitting Lessons:
Beginning
Knit, $60.00 – 4 hours class time. Arranged on a private,
one-on-one basis, at a time that is convenient for both
student and teacher. Class appointments must be scheduled and
pre-paid at least 1 week in advance.
The student is responsible
for purchasing knitting needles and their first skein of yarn. We always recommend a
reference book of some sort to help retain what you have
learned and to refer back to in times of confusion.
1st class:
Learn how to cast on, the knit stitch, and the purl stitch.
2nd class:
Learn to read a pattern, pick up dropped stitches, increase
and decrease, add new yarn, change colors and bind off.
It is the
student’s choice of starting a project in either the 1st or
2nd class. Your project will depend on how quickly you pick up
the lessons. You may take a second round of lessons that would
include working on a project. For
further instruction, we recommend the Yarn Heaven University
Quick Classes. See below for details.
