These two classes, both introductory and advanced levels, are here to empower you as a knitter! In the first class, learn how to identify and repair common knitting mistakes in a knit and purl swatch. In the advanced class, learn how to repair those advanced issues such as picking up a dropped edge stitch, using and resurrecting a lace lifeline, and fixing sections of lace and cables. Take either class, or both, depending on your knitting and comfort levels.
