As the weather heats up, lots of us start thinking about warm-weather knitting–short sleeves (or no sleeves at all), loose fits, and cotton yarns.  Join us for an introductory class where Doris will guide you in swatching and planning for a Seiche tank.  This simple pattern from Knitscene works beautifully and knits up quickly in Ultra Pima. Prerequisites: this class is suitable for the intermediate knitter who can knit and purl and is comfortable working in the round. This two-hour, single-session class is FREE with purchase of materials and will be held Saturday, May 3, from 10:30 AM-12:30 PM.
