From handmade coasters and drink cozies to dish cloths (or doll blankets!) and pompom critters, we will have a ton of fun while learning foundational knitting skills to set kids up for a lifetime of learning.
We ask that students are at least 8 years old to attend this class. Although there is no minimum age for learning to knit, we have chosen a minimum age of 8 for this camp keeping in mind individual dexterity, fine-motor skills, interest, and attention span.
Skill Level: no experience required. Materials included: all supplies will be included for this camp. No need to bring anything along!
