Studio Knitting Classes for Beginners and Continuing Start February 3 and 9 in Ridgefield Continuing Ed

Welcome to Ridgefield Continuing Education! We hold classes year-round and many classes start soon – Day and Evening! – in Person and Zoom.

Advance registration is required. Registration contact information and the website link to all classes, as well as a downloadable brochure, is at the bottom of this article.

Studio Knitting for Beginners and Continuing

Keep your mind sharp by learning a new skill and keep your fingers nimble by keeping them moving. This open-knitting format is for both beginners and those who want to continue furthering their knitting skills. The participant will learn the basic stitches and develop skills in maintaining an even tension in the piece. The instructor will provide practice needles and practice yarn until the participant determines a project. After the selection of a project, the participant will purchase the necessary supplies. Projects have included knitting a scarf, sweater, blanket, and handbag. Instructor Lizabeth Doty, a professional educator for over 45 years, has taught some of her hobbies, calligraphy and knitting, to students of all ages for years. Join these fun, productive classes. She is a former teacher. Class size limited. Makeup date, if needed, is added to the end of the session.

There is space in the Tuesday evening class.  The Monday afternoon classes have a waitlist; however, it always is good to put your name on the list.
