SUMMARY:Knit Your Own Project - Tuesday mornings
DESCRIPTION:This knitting class lets you bring ANY knitting project to receive expert guidance on any knitting topic. Knitting teacher Amanda Schwabe will be here to help you troubleshoot any project or learn a new knitting skill. \nBring your wips\, your projects that are in time out\, or your next new challenge. Amanda has been teaching knitting classes in the Ottawa area for 10+ years\, and designing and writing knitting patterns even longer. She can help you with your knitting\, no matter what it is. Brioche\, socks\, mittens\, sweater fitting\, fixing mistakes (even in complex lace or cables)\, colourwork\, shawls\, amigurumi\, and so on — it’s all fair game. \nIt’s a good idea to bring a few projects\, so that if you get stuck on one\, you’ll have something simple to knit while Amanda is helping other students. \nThis Tuesday morning class runs every week. You’re welcome to drop in and sign up on the morning of the class\, but it’s best to sign up ahead of time so we can notify you if the class gets cancelled because of sickness or extenuating circumstances.
