Turn those old t-shirts into yarn, and learn some new knitting skills along the way! This class is a fun introduction to knitting in the round, basic lace knitting, and has an interesting pinhole cast-on. We will also be creating our own upcycled yarn! Students should be comfortable with the knit and purl stitch, and have some experience reading a pattern.
