We run a beginners' knitting course. You will find a brief overview below. Please contact us for more infomation.

Beginners' Knitting             

Daytime or Evening course (a series of three two-hour sessions) - £69  

Week 1:

This workshop will begin with an introduction to yarns, needles and patterns. You will then learn to cast on, using the cable and thumb methods, before trying your hand at plain, purl, garter and stocking stitch.

Week 2:

In this workshop you will learn moss stitch and rib stitch, as well as learning how to cast off. You will also be taught the importance of tension and shown how to knit a tension square.

Week 3:

This workshop will cover shaping, increasing and decreasing. You will also be shown how to block your work to obtain a more professional finish. Now you have all the skills you need to make a scarf or simple garment. 

Sunday course (a series of two Sunday sessions) - £69

These workshops are held over two Sundays and cover the same skills as above.
