[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Beginner Knitting classes

Sat Apr 11 15:30:11 UTC 2020

Henry, if you have time, go ahead and coach anyone who wants coaching. There are so many people interested in learning to knit right now that all we can really do is introduce things one at a time. Most people need a coach for moral support and clarification. Just go ahead and coach anyone who brings you questions or concerns. They can come back to the class or not as they choose. I would not start a separate class on the same thing at the same time I think. Although the group is so large that it may not move ahead together. Then we should divide it one way or the other. I had not thought to go beble the first four classes, but I can think up at least two more. I just think new knitters should spend some time working with garter and stockinette stitches before trying to do too many other things. They will buibbd up some speed and comfort with knitting and enjoy it more if  they do not take on too much too fast I think.
