Learn to Knit – Bea’s Wrap Cowl

Melissa Kurkoski, Wednesdays, June 12, 19 & 26, 6:30-8:30. Investment: $68 (plus $24 supply fee due at class) ~REGISTER HERE

Knitting has long been documented for its numerous therapeutic benefits whether undertaken individually or with a group of like minded souls expressing themselves through the unifying act of Making. Knitting could be an avenue for your self-expression or a creative option for therapeutic self-care. It’s time to awaken the fiber crafter in you! Join Melissa Kurkoski of Fiber Forager to learn the knitting basics (or refresh a dormant skill) and then make the Bea’s Wrap Cowl, a simple yet beautiful accessory to enjoy on cool summer evenings. Students will learn how to cast on, make the knit and purl stitches, cast off, finish the garment and read a simple pattern.
