Explore the relaxing and tactile craft of knitting as you learn to make a cozy afghan or baby blanket. Using worsted weight yarn and size 8 needles, work up more than 50 different colored or patterned squares to create a beautiful piece that, when finished, resembles a quilt. Review basic stitches and enjoy the satisfaction of completing small sized projects that seam together to make up a whole. Discuss gauges and color combinations and enjoy an instructor demonstration on blocking for shape and size once a piece is fully knit. Take home your project or give it as a handmade gift. Supplies required.
