Introduction to Continental Knitting

Learn to knit the continental way – a fast, efficient and ergonomic knitting style loved by knitters around the world.

Curious about continental knitting? Whether you've never picked up needles before or you're an experienced English-style knitter (thrower) looking to learn a faster, more efficient technique, this relaxed one-hour workshop is the perfect place to start.

Learn the fundamentals of holding and tensioning yarn in your left hand, creating knit and purl stitches, and developing smooth, comfortable knitting movements. With personal guidance in a small-group setting, you'll gain confidence and discover why so many knitters make the switch to continental knitting.

Practice yarn is provided, needles are available to borrow or you bring your own (recommended needle size: 4mm, either straight or cable needles).
