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.

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.
