Description

 

 

Get ready to knit with your hands and unlock a world of quick, cozy projects! We'll kick off this fun, hands-on class by creating a stylish necklace using giant tube yarn, while you master the foundational stitch for all no-needles knitting.

The rest of our time will be spent exploring different types of super-bulky and jumbo yarns, as we layer skills until you've fully mastered:

  • Picking up loops
  • The knit stitch
  • The purl stitch
  • Finishing off a swatch

Vickie, will also share a few inspiring projects from her latest book, 

No Needles Knitting: Easy Techniques and Projects for making Quick and Cozy Modern Knits by Hand.

All are welcome—no prior experience with knitting or any yarn craft is required!
