Stitch Lab (Berkeley)

Class dates

Do you need some knitting or crochet help but not necessarily an entire one-on-one one hour private lesson? Stitch Lab is perfect for you!

Think of Stitch Lab as study hall but with an expert teacher on hand to work with. Have you come to a sticky spot in your pattern and need someone to guide you through it? Want some guidance as you try a new cast on or bind off technique? Are you struggling with transitioning to double pointed needles or maybe just need help picking up stitches for your armhole? For all those questions or techniques that require a little more guidance, sign up for our brand new Stitch Lab.

This is a group lesson that will have a maximum of 6 participants to one teacher. It lasts for the full duration of 1 hour but do note since the instructor's time will be shared, there may be points during the hour where you will be working independently. If you need dedicated one-on-one help with an instructor, please sign up for a private lesson.

Instructor - Celia McCarthy

Celia McCarthy, also known as the Yarn Therapist, is joining the ImagiKnit East team after a 10 year stint owning and operating Piedmont Yarn and Apparel.ย 

Stitch Lab will take place in person at our Berkeley shop located at 2921 College Avenue.

This is not a "learn to knit" or "learn to crochet" setting. Stitch Lab is designed to help knitters and crocheters advance through new projects and techniques.


Please come with the project you are working on, all necessary needles and notions and the full pattern directions if you have them so the instructor can use those as reference. If you need to pick up any supplies, the shop will be open during this time.

If you need to cancel your reservation, please let us know as soon as possible and at least 48 hours ahead of the day and we will issue a store credit for the cost of the class. Day before or day of cancellations will result in a forfeiture of the class cost. No shows cannot be credited or refunded.
