Learn to make two sleeves or socks on one circular needle using the Magic Loop method.

Cost $10 Bring along any scrap worsted weight yarn and matching 32” or longer circular needle.

Learn the very beginnings of brioche- this kind d of knitting is not necessarily hard but it does take some attention, and a willingness to tear out and restart!

Included is a free Ravelry pattern for a star- you may just want to focus on the straight stitch however and that’s fine.

$10. Bring two small skeins of DK or Worsted weight yarn and size 3 double points or small circumference needle.

This class is now full, but another will be held in January - let me know if you’re interested!

Learn to weave on a rigid heddle loom. This technique is a nice way to get into weaving without getting really technical! The direct warping method streamlines this process and you’ll get to the weaving part sooner.

Make a pretty table runner or placemat. You are welcome to take the loom home for the week and continue working on the project, and then meet Saturday afternoon, Nov 23, to take the project off the loom.

Cost $75.

Learn to knit with two colors per round and make mittens! Stranded mittens are double warm and durable. Charts will be provided.

You need to know how to knit and purl confidently - you will learn the rest in class. This is a three week class.

Pattern is Elja by Skeindeer Knits. You will need 50g of two contrasting colors of DK weight yarn. Our BFL BFF Stranded Mitten Kits are perfect for this, but you can also make up your own. You will also need small circumference needles, dpns, 9” circular, Magic Loop needle, or 2 circulars, probably in sizes US3 and US5 (depends on your individual tension).

An optional modification will be to add a Latvian Braid.

Make a chair pad, or a rug if you’re up for a bigger project, out of 100% wool roving. We’ll braid the roving, and then you’ll take it home to felt your braids. We will reconvene on a second date to sew them together.

Cost - FREE - it is not so much a class as it a grappling through the well laid out instructions in the book The Shepherd’s Rug by Lettie Klein.

You will need approximately 16 oz wool roving for a chair pad. Ewetopia has some natural colored roving for $2/ounce. Wouldn’t it be fun to dye it? If not, Ewetopia has a wide range of dyed and natural colored roving.

So you know how to knit and wonder how to move on? Take this class and learn not only how to purl but also how to knit on double pointed needles, do ribbing, read a pattern, read your knitting, and make useful fingerless mitts. (I will offer an alternate ending for the fingers and the braid, unless you’re feeling particularly spicy and want to try it!)

Cost for 2 weeks is $40. You will need to bring or buy a skein of worsted weight yarn and needles needed for the class.

Get them both done at the same time using Magic Loop!

Do you know how to cast on and do the knit and purl stitches and are ready to take the next step to broaden your skills?

Have you taken on a pattern that’s difficult for you and would love to have help at your side to make sense of it all?

Always wanted to learn stitches like brioche knitting or stranded colorwork but not sure where to start?

Then then this might be for you.

​It’s a two hour, semi-private lesson (never more than three others) where each student can choose a different knitting challenge they want to focus on that day. 

This is not to replace the day-to-day help we offer at Ewetopia for free, but instead to encourage knitters to challenge themselves to their unique next level, even if it means learning entirely new skills.

Knitters of all skill levels are encouraged–from those who’ve just completed our Learn To Knit class to folks who have been building their skills for years.

Here are a sample of skills you might want to tackle in Open Forum:

• A first hat: Joining in the round, decreasing stitches, and using double-pointed needles

• Knitting socks using the “magic loop” technique

• How to create stitches or lace patterns

• A first sweater, whether for a baby or yourself

• Stranded colorwork mittens

• Brioche

  Please decide which pattern or skill you’d like to work on before class. We are happy to help you pick a pattern in the days leading up to your class. 
  
  If you have signed up for an Open Forum Class and would like us to help you narrow the pattern options down, just send us an email.

  Cost is $20 per session, and five sessions for $80.
