KNIT-Alongs
To master the craft of machine knitting, you have to practice, make swatches, make mistakes and practice some more. This is how you develop the muscle memory to be confident on the machine.
We have planned our KALs with that in mind. With more structured learning, a workbook full of helpful illustrations and notes that accompany the videos, as well as swatch pages for your class work, and the company of fellow students at the introductory zoom meeting and dedicated online forum. This is going to make your learning more efficient.
Our KALs with foundation classes take you deep into a subject matter, while the project-based knit-alongs provide opportunities for students to practice a combination of techniques, and adapt their vision using our patterns.
If you are interested in learning at your own pace, you may purchase our classes outright, or join our membership program to access our entire class collection.
