In two 2-hour lessons, you will make a cozy pair of loafers (Malabrigo Loafers by Julie Weisenberger) in a soft, chunky yarn while learning how to knit short rows, pick up stitches, knit in the round using magic loop, and shaping (increasing/decreasing)!
We have two kit options:
Malabrigo Loafers Kit - Malabrigo Worsted (hold 2 strands together)
-or-
Malabrigo Loafers Kit - Rasta (use a single strand)
Note: This class is for very confident beginners or intermediate knitters, and is a great class to take after all of the introductory classes (knitting 101 A & B, hats 101) but before the sock class.
Instructor - Michiko Arai
The class will take place in person at our San Francisco shop located at 3897 18th Street.
Must know longtail cast on, knit, purl, standard bind off.
