YARNIA FEBRUARY/MARCH 2008 CLASS LIST (updated 2/16/08)

(Please Read Class Policy Statement) Costs listed are for instruction only . There are additional costs for yarn, pattern, needles and supplies which will vary depending on what you choose and what you already have.

 March 5 12:30-3:30 PORTUGUESE STYLE OF KNITTING WORKSHOP  with Andrea Wong  $45      As we all know, there is no right or wrong way to knit. But there is a WONG WAY!  Andrea actually holds the yarn around a knitting pin on her left shoulder, which makes the working yarn easily available, makes tension uniform, and requires fewer movements to knit or purl. This style has an incredible advantage for people who suffer from carpal tunnel or arthritis. According to Andrea’s students, they discovered that purling this way is much easier and faster than using either the American or German style. Another advantage is that, for blind people who have learned this way, the yarn is always readily available and requires less maneuvering of the needles compared to the other styles.

Step above the Basics: You can still sign up for class 2 and 3 cost is $24.….Series of classes to improve your knitting results for future projects. Class 1: Yarn and gauge.
