Arts for Older Adults: Two Part Beginner Knitting Workshop: Reusable Dishcloth – IN-PERSON

In this two-part workshop, you will learn fundamental knitting skills by making a reusable dishcloth. In part one, you will learn how to begin a project by casting on, the knit stitch, and how to complete a project by binding off and weaving ends in. In part two, you will learn the stockinette stitch. No previous knitting experience is necessary for this class. Your supplies are included and you will be able to take your knitting needles and the remainder of yarn home with you. This class is in two parts, taking place on Thursday, October 5 and Thursday, October 19 from 1 to 3 p.m. This class is part of the Arts for Older Adults program and is open only to adults aged 65 or older through grant funding from Tennessee Arts Commission. About the instructor: A self-taught knitter, Claudia Hoffer has been knitting for over 20 years and crocheting for nearly as long. Invisible Accidents was founded in 2014, and was created to share knit and crochet pieces that are inspired by and celebrate a fondness for the sanctity of flaws created by the human hand. Claudia has a BFA in Painting & Drawing from UTC, and her thesis employed knitting and crocheting to create a fiber sculpture.
