In Knitting 101, students learn to execute maneuvers such as the purl, the cast on, and the no-hands drop stitch, taking steps toward the completion of a scarf, hat, or socks. Knitting 102 reinforces skills from the 101 course and builds upon them with increase stitches, decrease stitches, and the basics of cable knitting. Students complete a shawl and a sweater over the course of three classes (this Groupon only covers the first class). Alternatively, Knitting 201 focuses on cable knits and projects larger than a beach-ball cozy. The one-year package allows customers to enjoy unlimited drop-in knitting, knit-alongs, and sit-and-knits. See the full class schedule.
