*This class fulfills the Knitting II Requirement for WEKP.
Yes, you can expand your knitting skills online! Knitting 2 on Zoom is an introduction to knitting in the round on both circular and DPNs. Hats, mittens, socks, and sweaters can be knit on circular and DPNs. The class will focus on working stitch patterns in the round as you create three projects; a cowl, fingerless mitts, and a hat. You'll learn how to shape fabric using increases and decreases, fix mistakes, and read knitting patterns. There will be a review of knit and purl stitches, cast-on and bind-off, and gauge. If you've completed Knitting 1 or are a self-taught knitter who wants to fine-tune your skills, Knitting 2 will move you forward.
You will receive the Zoom link 1-2 business days before the virtual class.
