Join us to learn how to hand-knit your own beautiful, cozy blanket. Blankets are couch or lap blankets, but you could use more yarn to make it bed-sized at home if you wish. The instruction fee is $25. THIS DOES NOT INCLUDE YOUR YARN!! SEE BELOW FOR DETAILS. Please feel free to BYOB and snacks, and of course, a friend or family to knit alongside of and keep company with. Seating is limited, and the class will sell out, so do not wait to grab a spot. Also, do not wait to get yarn; colors get picked over quickly in these cooler months. Sales occur bi-weekly at Michaels and Hobby Lobby. Feel free to use other yarn brands, BUT make sure it's the super thick chunky yarn for handknitting!!! About the width of a finger!! If it’s too thin, it will not work for this hand-knitting technique. **IMPORTANT** PLEASE NOTE: You are responsible for getting your own THICK & CHUNKY blanket yarn. Thin yarn will not work for this. It has to be about as thick as a finger. Two good brands and places are Bernat Blanket Big from Michaels or Yarn Bee - Eternal bliss from Hobby Lobby or Amazon. In these brands, you will need 6-8 skeins of yarn. I have bought generic yarn before from Walmart and Amazon, and they are never quite as thick so an extra skein may be needed. Please feel free to contact me. I will help as much as I can. Michaels and Hobby Lobby do have sales on yarn bi-weekly so check for sales as the yarn is pricy. Mix and match colors if you wish to create stripes and patterns as you knit.
**IF YOU HAVE TAKEN A CLASS BEFORE, PLEASE JOIN US AGAIN TO LEARN A NEW STITCH AND BE ABLE TO CREATE A WHOLE NEW LOOK AND DESIGN WITH YOUR BLANKET. I HAVE SEVERAL NEW STITCHES FOR YOU TO CHOOSE FROM. I WILL ALSO REFUND $5 TO ANYONE WHO SHOWS UP AT THE PARTY WHO IS THE SECOND BLANKET CLASS.
