this is your opportunity to get
your feet wet without investing the time it would take to make a shawl.

perfect birthday, shower or Christmas gift! Knit covers prevent silky

Knitting in Both Directions
Wednesday July 21, 2010 9-11am
Or Tuesday July 27, 2010 6-8pm
Most of us knit in one direction, but what would happen if you could knit in EITHER direction? Bobbles would pop out faster, entrelac would be even more fun, edgings would be added quicker and your yarn would be less tangled. Some call it
knitting backwards, but regardless of the name, it is a great skill to have in your knitting arsenal. You can learn the basics to
knitting (and purling) in “the other direction” regardless of the way you knit now! All it takes, as with most things, is a little bit of practice. $25.00
