October 15, 2015 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Cost: $55 for 3 hours
Teacher: Kate
Dates: Tuesday, October 18th – 6-9pm
Mittens are not only a key winter wardrobe item, and a great gift, but they’re also a terrific way to learn some new knitting skills. This class takes knitters through a mini “training” mitten – a classic cuff-up mitt with gusset thumb – so that they can learn everything they need about making mitts in a short amount of time. In the second half of the class, students start a pair of full-size mittens.
Skill Level: Advanced beginner – knitters need to be proficient with knit, purl; experience with knitting in the round is helpful but not mandatory
Materials Required: Scrap medium-weight yarn & 4.5mm/US #7 DPNs; for the full-size mitts, 220 yds medium-weight yarn & 6mm/US #10 DPNs
