Are you already a knitter and would love to expand your knowledge? In this class, you'll learn about the continental style of knitting, where the yarn is tensioned on your left hand’s index finger.
You will learn two different ways to purl and the ways they help you become a faster, more efficient knitter.
We will also talk about chart reading and you will get to practise your newly acquired skills on a series of charts, including some easy cables.
