What you'll learn in this knitting class:

Learn to knit with your arms! in this beginner workshop, you'll learn to make ultra-chunky knits using your own arms as knitting needles! 

You'll make an over-sized scarf or cowl in the yarn--the perfect accessory to ward off the NYC winter in style. You won't believe how quickly you can whip up a finished piece--all students will leave with a finished cowl or scarf, and the knowledge to tackle more arm knitting projects on their own.

    Such a lovely teacher and the class was great! I adored the scarf at the end too! Can't wait to make myself another one soon!

    Arm knitting was so much fun! I thought I'd be nervous and lost, coming in without muck knitting experience, but the instructor made the whole experience comfortable and easy to follow. I loved that I was able to make something I could take home with me and wear, then take it apart and make something new again with the yarn from class as practice. I was excited to meet new people after such a long hiatus from social activities and learn a new skill in the afternoon. Would be thrilled to take more classes at this location.

    Te instructor was patient and used her camera to ensure we could see each step. I wish we had gotten more detail about the yarn rather than just telling us what to purchase from their store. I had tons of yarn so I didn’t buy any and didn’t understand that the technique works better with thicker yarn, or that I needed two balls and not one.

    I did arm knitting course today with Amelia and she was fantastic! She was friendly, helpful and welcoming and repeated everything several times so could learn. She helped us too along way with helping with issues that popped up.

    Great class! I made a beautiful scarf. Wool a little pricey. Overall an enjoyable way to spend a rainy say afternoon. Would recommend to friends and family.

    This was a great class. Very easy craft to learn. You will walk out with a completed scarf. Very relaxing and social. The instructor was great. Offered one on one help continuously as she insured the progression of each attendee. Thank you very much. My only suggestion is to offer attendees the opportunity to bring their own yarn or purchase at location. The yarn purchased at location is of excellent quality but choices were limited and a little pricy.

    I never knew there was an Arm knitting in my life. I had a great experience learning it. I would for sure come back for these classes again. I was in New York on work from India and I went for this class and I wish I had more time to go for more classes. But next time I will make sure I am here for more of these classes.
