Supplies:  Materials list below

Ready to put your new knitting skills into action? In this 2-class series, you’ll combine the basics of knitting to create your very first wearable project: a cozy winter scarf. This is a perfect follow-up to our beginning knitting class, or a great refresher if you’ve dabbled in knitting before and want to finish a project with confidence.

You’ll practice casting on, knitting and purling, and binding off in-pattern — everything you need to complete your own handmade scarf. Plus, you’ll gain experience reading and following a knitting pattern and yarn labels. By the end, you’ll be well on your way to wrapping up in something cozy.

If you purchased a skein or hank, please wind into a ball or cake before class (Note: Mystic has a ball winder and they are happy to wind your yarn for a small fee! Reach out to Mystic if you would like this service.)
