Overview

Knitting provides a world of fabric-making options.

Using the simplicity, contrast and harmony of the knit and purl stitches, we learn the basics of this time-honored tradition: how to get the stitches onto and off of the needles, and what happens in between. Basic increasing, decreasing, texture and pattern reading. Projects may include stitch sampler scarf or a one-of-a-kind cell-phone pouch.

New Art Center studios coming soon!

Starting July 21, 2025, some programs will move to temporary spaces while our new studios are under construction. Check location details before your visit!

This program is part of the Gilda and Henry Block School of the Arts.
