Let’s have some knitting fun

Simplest mitts

Log Cabin Mitts

U-Turn Mitts

I am offering three classes this Winter.

I choose three different patterns for fingerless mitts, one each for the beginner, intermediate and advanced knitter.
All of these are knitted flat ( the last one in a very unique way).
I like fingerless mitts, because they are fun to wear and fairly quick to make.
The fee for the classes is $80 for the beginner and advanced class ( three sessions each ) and $60 for the intermediate class ( two sessions) plus material.  The patterns are all free.

I decided to start the classes the weekend following Martin Luther King Day.
Location:  The classes will be held at AL Stickles in Rhinebeck.
