In this workshop, you will learn how to fix knitting mistakes without ripping out your entire project. In this hands-on class, you’ll practice safely ripping back, picking up stitches, placing them back on your needles, and using tools like lifelines and cables to stay in control. Perfect for knitters who want more confidence and less frustration when mistakes happen.

 

What you leave with: Your knew knowledge!

Knitters must know how to knit and purl

What is provided (for the duration of the workshop)

Nothing

What to bring

Required preparation (to be completed before class):

To give you a low-pressure way to practice (without risking a finished project), please bring 2 small swatches. Swatch 1 – knit flat: cast on 30–40 stitches using DK or worsted weight yarn, work in stockinette stitch (knit 1 row, purl 1 row) for approximately 4–5 inches, then bind off. Swatch 2 – knit in the round: create a small tube using the magic loop method, double-pointed needles, or a small circular needle, with a total of 30–40 stitches, knit in the round for approximately 4–5 inches, then bind off. Optional but encouraged: drop a stitch anywhere in the project and secure it with a removable stitch marker (such as a safety-pin style marker).
