Hand Knit Blanket

Wrap yourself in creativity and comfort in this cozy, beginner-friendly hand knit blanket workshop! In this class, you’ll learn how to create a soft, chunky blanket using only your hands — no knitting needles required. We’ll walk step-by-step through the basics, including casting on, creating hand-knit stitches, and binding off. This class is perfect for beginners, but also fun for anyone who wants to try a new creative technique. By the end, you’ll leave with a finished (or nearly finished) blanket and the skills and confidence to keep hand knitting on your own. Using luxurious, oversized yarn, you’ll create a beautiful blanket that adds warmth and style to any space — perfect for your home or as a heartfelt handmade gift. It’s a relaxed, welcoming environment, so bring a friend and enjoy a cozy time creating together!
