Knitting Skill Builder Series – Knitting Increases and Decreases

Knitting Skill Builder Series – Knitting Increases and Decreases, 5:30 to 7:30 p.m., Wednesday, May 22

Learn to knit for the first time, or improve your skills with our new Knitting Skill Builder Series! This series of classes will walk you through the basics of knitting in short, 2-hour classes. Sign up for one or all of the classes and become a knitting pro.

In the Reading a Pattern lesson, Courtney Walters will teach you common ways to increase and decrease when your pattern calls for it. This a must know skill for anyone who wants to move beyond scarves and pot holders and take on socks, sweater, shawls and much more.

Supply list:

• Worsted weight yarn
• Size 7 or 8 needles
• We recommend that you cast on 15 to 20 stitches and knit four rows of garter stitch (knit every row)

The classes are at Quilt Addicts Anonymous, 1232 30th St., Rock Island, IL. You must purchase the class in order to sign up. Since space is limited, cancellations made within 48 hours of the class will not be refunded.
