Don’t panic! In this workshop you’ll learn how to fix some of the most common mistakes that knitters make. We’ll explore how to “read” your knitting and see where mistakes are lurking. You’ll learn how to pick up dropped stitches - even ones that have laddered down several rows. We’ll also address reversed stitches, accidental yarnovers, tinking and frogging, and more.

Students will watch demonstrations, receive hands-on support, and knit small swatches to practice each skill.
