Summer Youth: Beginning Knitting (Ages 10-12)

Learn to knit!

About this Class

This class is a jump start to knitting and will launch you directly into the process of knitting a simple hat. At the end, we will learn to make pom poms and decorate the tops of our hats with a flashy, contrasting color. Want to make it more exciting? Learn to change colors and add stripes!
