Knitting with Peggy

A simple, fun and welcoming knitting course to help you get to grips with the basics and work on a project with like-minded people. 

Peggy, a lifetime knitter will guide you through the fundamentals of knitting to get you on your way: 

Week 1 – Cast on/knit 

Week 2 – Purl stitch 

Week 3 – Project work – hats, peggy squares 

Week 4 – learning how to read a pattern

Week 5 – Working on our projects

Week 6 - Working on our projects

Week 7 – looking at other patterns, such as cables etc.

Week 8 – Cast off 

On this class you will be learning how to do basic knitting, from casting on, plain knitting, purling and casting off. I will also go over how to read a pattern. We will hopefully be able to make a hat, or Peggy square blanket, by the end of the course.

This course is supported by the TEC (Tertiary Education Commission) to assist with literacy and numeracy needs of students. You must attend 80% of the class. At the same time we hope you will learn other useful and interesting skills and have a lot of fun learning with us.
