Please purchase the supplies for this class ahead of time. I would suggest ordering from an online craft store or local yarn store rather than Amazon in order to make sure you get the supplies delivered in time.
SUPPLIES NEEDED:
Yarn: One skein smooth, worsted/medium weight (#4) yarn, acrylic or acrylic/wool blend, in a solid light color. Suggested: Lion Brand Heartland Yarn or Lion Brand Wool-Ease Yarn.
Knitting Needles: One pair US8/4.0 mm straight needles between 9-14" long, preferably plastic or wood. Suggested: Lion Brand Plastic Needles, or Clover Bamboo Knitting Needles.
ZOOM INFORMATION: This online class will be provided via Zoom videoconferencing service. To participate, you will need a smartphone or computer with a microphone and a video camera. PLEASE SEE YOUR CONFIRMATION EMAIL FROM LMB DESIGNS FOR ZOOM LINK.
We will all be able to see each other on video. When you need help, you can show me your project by holding it up to your camera. Since I have two cameras, I can show you how to do things from your perspective. Please plan to log in a few minutes early to make sure your video camera and microphone are working. You will be in a "waiting room" until the instructor arrives and "admits you" into class.
AGE APPROPRIATENESS: Children over the age of 10 are welcome to take any class. I strongly suggest that a parent or guardian also take class with the child.
You can cancel or reschedule a class no later than 2 business days prior to your class. If you are registered for a specific date, or have told me you are coming and then don’t show, you will be charged for the missed class.
In the event that an instructor or the school needs to cancel at the last minute, students will receive a refund less a 5% non-refundable registration fee.
Thank you for your feedback. I offer classes in an overlapping format, in which beginners get their own class for the first half hour, then they overlap with the Open Knitting and Crochet class attended by more advanced students. I feel that it provides beginners an opportunity to see what they can aspire to make, and feel a part of the ongoing community of knitters who attend the Open class. I strive to provide as much personalized attention to each student as possible, which is sometimes less successful if it’s a larger class. I would be happy to offer a private lesson to anyone who feels that they didn’t get an equal amount of help as others in the class.
