Building Blocks - In-person and Zoom (live)
Become a confident knitter one step, aka block, at a time. Each block is designed to develop a specific skill while knitting a beautiful square. Move from basic to more advanced skills thru twelve different blocks. Completion of series you will gain an abundance of knitting knowledge, confidence and multiple skills while creating a lap blanket. Twelve (12) classes taught approximately every other week.

| Instructor: | Chris Adams |
| Instructor Bio: | My name is Christine Adams, after living in southern NJ for over 40 years, my husband and I retired to Fredericksburg area in 2012. Transitioning from the hectic life of running a family owned manufacturing firm, to a quieter slower lifestyle, I decided it was time to try knitting. I fell in love. Within a year, I was working at my lys, and my knitting IQ grew in leaps and bounds. Six months later taught my first class. Since I have taught basic beginner, different colorworks, brioche, socks and steeking classes. My goal is for my students to love knitting. I want my students to understand the how & why of stitches, realize the when & where of the pattern and develop a knitter's eye & intuition. That knowledge and confidence enables them to tackle techniques, projects and mistakes without panicking and with confidence. |
