Do you know the basics of knitting (casting on, knit & purl stitches, binding off) but are ready for your next challenge? Or maybe you learned to knit a while ago, and are looking for a refresher course? Continue your knitting journey with us! 

In this class you will learn how to knit the Basic Beanie by Tin Can Knits.

Techniques we will cover in this class will be:

How to knit in the round, work ribbed stitches, count rows, and work decrease rounds, all while creating a bottom-up hat!

This class will be taught by our very own Betsy Pingree!
