Beyond the Basics Knitting



Beyond the Basics reinforces the fundamentals you learned in Learner's Permit to Knit, and teaches you new skills to get you ready for the rest of your knitting career! We'll be working on the Coffee Shop Wrap by Alexandra Tavel, and while we reinforce our casting on and binding off skills, we'll also learn increases, yarn overs, and how to get even tension when knitting and purling.

In the last class, Karen will also guide you through how to identify and pick up a dropped stitch, how to rip back several rows without tears, and how to tell if your stitches are oriented correctly.

You'll come out of class armed with all the skills you need to move on to our other advanced beginner classes like Building Blocks, the Novice Sweater, and Socks 101.
