In this class, instructor Sarah Walworth will guide you through the basics of knitting. You will learn to cast on, knit, purl, and bind off while making a small square with a knit and purl pattern that can be used as a coaster or "mug rug" when you are finished. She will also explain how to read a simple knitting pattern and practice identifying and fixing mistakes as you go.

• Worsted weight smooth light-colored yarn
• US 7/4.5mm knitting needle
• Stitch markers
• Tapestry Needle

About the Instructor: Sarah Walworth is an author, knitting pattern editor, and industry community leader. She first learned to knit as a child from her mom, but re-learned as an adult when she needed a way to keep her hands busy. It quickly cascaded into re-writing patterns to fit her, learning innovative techniques, and trying all different ways to tension the yarn. She loves to pass on the craft to whomever she can get to hold needles and yarn for a few minutes. You can find her at www.sarahwalworth.com, as @tricotedit on social media, and via email at tricotedit@gmail.com.
