Beginning Knitting Series
About
A three-week introduction for true beginners: how to hold yarn and needles, knit and purl, cast on and bind off, and work increases and decreases. Sessions run Tuesdays 5–6pm on November 3, 10 and 17 at Seattle Yarn, 2701 California Ave SW in West Seattle (Metro routes 55 and 128). The fee is $80, supplies extra, with 10% off supplies for enrolled students; a waitlist is available if it fills. Graduates can step up to the shop's Knitting 102 cowl class, which starts the same evening.

New to textiles?
Textile classes range from weaving on a frame or rigid-heddle loom to embroidery, knitting, crochet, natural dyeing, felting and sewing a first garment.
- Check whether the class is for complete beginners or assumes you can already cast on or thread a machine.
- Single sessions usually make something small: a wall hanging, a hoop, a dyed scarf.
- Bring reading glasses if you use them; most fibre work is close-up.
Taking it home: Usually the same day. Larger pieces may be finished at home with the yarn or thread you leave with.
