Mistakes happen… but what if they didn’t have to ruin your project?
One of the most empowering skills you can learn as a knitter is how to fix your own work. In this hands-on workshop with Elizabeth Margaret, you’ll learn how to confidently identify, understand, and repair common knitting mistakes—so you can keep going without starting over.
We’ll cover how to read your knitting, use lifelines, correct stitch counts, fix dropped stitches, and spot errors while working in pattern. You’ll gain the skills to troubleshoot your projects in real time and build a deeper understanding of how your stitches actually work.
Have a project that’s been sitting in time-out? Bring your WiP along—Elizabeth will offer guidance and help troubleshoot as time allows.
Elizabeth brings decades of knitting and crochet experience and a deep love of teaching, making even the trickiest fixes feel approachable.
You’ll leave this class feeling more confident, capable, and ready to tackle your knitting without fear.
Materials to Bring:
*1 ball of yarn (DK or worsted weight recommended) + appropriate needles
*1 tapestry needle
*Scrap yarn (a few yards)
*Crochet hook (size D–F) or a stitch fixer
*1 double-pointed needle (same size as your working needles)
Perfect for knitters who know the basics and are ready to take their skills (and confidence) to the next level.
