Let’s knit together at a local cafe! Last winter Terri from Ed’s Mercantile taught a small circle of Bedford Park neighbours how to knit at BB Cafe in the hood. Back by popular demand, we are co-hosting another Knit & Sip Circle in the hood!
Come alone, with your child, your friend or neighbour and join us for a cozy winter Knit & Sip at a local cafe in Bedford Park.
* Refunds up to 7 days before event; Stripe fee is nonrefundable.
Participants learn all the basic skills needed to start their adventure in knitting. Terri will show you how to cast on and knit in both garter stitch (just the knit stitch) and stockinette stitch (both knit and purl stitches) as well as how to cast off to give everyone a firm grounding in the foundations of knitting.
