Specific techniques such as casting on, knit, purl, increasing/decreasing stitches, yarn overs and binding off will be covered.

Biography

I learned to knit at about the age of 12 from my Grandmother. After retirement, I became what I would call a serious knitter, expanding my craft with the help of patient friends, knitting groups and organized classes. I enjoy learning new techniques and experimenting with different fibers. I also enjoy other fiber arts such as cross stitch, needlepoint, crochet and am interested in learning to weave.
