🧶 Learn to Knit with Kristy — Beginner Class
Come join us for a warm, welcoming class designed just for beginners! Whether you’re brand new to knitting or haven’t picked up needles since the 90s, this class will give you the confidence (and calm) to get started.
You'll learn the foundations: how to tie a slipknot, cast on, work the knit stitch, and bind off. We’ll also cover yarn anatomy (yes, that’s a thing!), choosing tools, and what to try next. This is more than just a class — it’s an invitation into a time-honored, soul-soothing tradition that has kept hands busy, minds calm, and hearts connected for generations.
No experience? No problem. Kristy’s been knitting since 2004 and brings over two decades of experience in fiber arts to the table — including teaching, technical editing, and professional finishing. You can find her handmade awesomeness at local shops in the upstate and in-person at pop-up markets throughout the year. She’s a Navy veteran with C-PTSD who calls knitting her therapy and testimony — every stitch is a quiet prayer of gratitude, and she delights in passing that joy to her students.
Her teaching style? Methodical, flexible, and peppered with humor — because your hands might fumble at first, but that doesn’t mean your confidence has to. Past students have described Kristy as patient, calming, and surprisingly good at helping things “click”.
🧶 Skills Needed:
None at all! This class is ideal for true beginners or those looking for a gentle, total refresher.
🧶 Materials:
No need to bring anything — all materials are provided!
There is a non-refundable $15 materials fee, included in your ticket price, to allow Kristy to prepare your supplies in advance. Life happens, and we understand cancellations — but this fee helps keep things running smoothly for everyone.
Join us and learn a skill you can take anywhere — from your couch to your quiet time, to gifting your first handmade heirloom. Let’s knit something beautiful together.
Crafting community…one stitch at a time.
