Learn How to Knit
About
A beginner knitting class covering casting on, knit and purl stitches, binding off, tools and how to read a pattern, with an optional second session on 14 November (2–4pm) for working on projects with the instructor nearby. The first, required session runs 3–5pm Saturday at Reuse Commons Lake City, 12558 Lake City Way NE (bus 522 from Roosevelt Station or route 61 from Northgate Station). Sliding-scale pricing is $35.00 - $75.00, and you choose whether to add the second session at checkout.

How it compares
- Weekend
- Take it home the same day
At $35, this sits toward the low end of the 22 single-session textiles classes we list in Seattle. They run from $10 to $300, and the typical price is $60.
That works out to about $18 an hour for a 2-hour session.
If one session leaves you wanting more, 1 studio we list runs multi-week textiles courses, from $80.

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.
