Hi! My name is Jenny and I've been part of our learning services team here at the Advanced Learning Library since January 2019. As a lifelong learner myself, I think learning circles are important because education should be accessible to everyone, not just those that have the time or can afford to take classes. Also, learning is more fun with other people! A little about me; I love reading historical fiction and fantasy novels and also enjoy knitting, sewing and weaving.
Welcome!
Thank you for signing up for the “Learn to Knit” Learning Circle! I look forward to meeting everyone! Please note that due to the nature of this course, there will limited registration, so if you are unable to commit to the class, please let me know as soon as possible so that I can cancel your registration and allow room for other learners to join. Furthermore, registration will be closing on the first day of the course (January 10th) so be sure to sign up prior to the first day if you want to join. There will be knitting needles and yarn provided to use in the class, but if you’d like to be able to practice at home between class meetings, you will have to purchase needles or yarn for that (I will go over suggested materials in the first class), however, purchase of materials is not required to take the class.
Course materials we'll use
Are you looking for a cozy craft to get you through the dreary days of winter? Knitting is the perfect craft to learn in the cold months and as a bonus, you will always have plenty of warm hats, scarves and socks on hand! In this learning circle, you will learn all the basics to get you started on your very first knitting project, including how to choose supplies, starting and finishing a knitting project, basic knit and purl stitches and how to read a pattern. No previous experience required, as this course is intended for complete beginners. Knitting needles and yarn will be provided for in-class use.
