No worries: This is not another class on cast-on methods. Here you will have fun and learn how to add a WOW! effect to a simple hat, shawl, sweater, gloves, or any other project for kids or adults right at the cast-on. We will use cast-ons you probably know already in a very creative way. Once you try this new approach, there is no going back.

Your projects will be unique and fun to make.

Instructor - Faina Goberstein

Faina Goberstein is an independent knitwear designer, author, and a professional teacher. Taking an early retirement from a long career as a math professor gave Faina a chance to let her creativity and long-time passion for knitwear design to become a second profession. She now teaches at live events and virtually for Vogue Knitting Live, Rowan Connect, Interweave Yarn Fest, and various venues such as guilds, fiber fests, and yarn shops locally, around the country and abroad.

The class will take place in person at our Berkeley shop located at 2921 College Avenue.
