Class: 2009 Afghan - The January Square

Jan. 10, 2009 (Saturday)
2-5 PM | $30 | Materials Included

During 2009 we will be making an afghan. While the patterns will always be free (like the 2008 scarf patterns), we will be offering workshops for those that need a little jump-start. Classes will give you dedicated class time and instruction, a set of needles, and appropriate yarn for the project.

The January Square is a simple basketweave pattern that anyone familiar with casting on, the knit stitch, the purl stitch, and binding off can do.

During the class we will get you started on the January square. We will provide needles and the appropriate weight yarn for the afghan (all squares will call for a worsted weight yarn that gets between 4-5 sts/inch on a US 7-9 needle), get you cast on and the first pattern repeat accomplished.

This class would not be good for someone who has never knit before, but if you can at least cast on and do the knit stitch, and are motivated to learn how to purl, this class is for you!



Classes do fill up early; so please reserve your space in the class by paying in advance as it is unlikely we will be able to accommodate walk-ins. Payment is required within 7 days of signing up for the class or within one week before the class begins (whichever comes first). All classes limited to five people unless otherwise stated. A minimum of 2 students is required for most classes to take place. If the minimum for a class is not reached, we will cancel or reschedule the class and a full refund will be given.
