Please
welcome these new knitters to the wonderful world of yarn and fiber arts! These talented women were in my 3-week Beginning Knitting class at
Chattanooga State which concluded last night. They were excellent students and successfully passed the course with flying colors!

New "Knitting Graduates" from the Beginning Knitting class. |
From the first class, these knitting students had plans for projects and were full of questions and ideas—an ascot with a button hole detail, a doggie sweater, afghans, scarves and home dec items. The conversation was lively and stimulating.

Beginning Knitting II class—Fingerless Mitts |
The next class in the knitting series is
Beginning Knitting II (see
page 4 of the Chattanooga State
course catalog). The techniques covered include making cables, ribbing, a gusset and seaming. We'll be making a pair of fingerless mitts—a perfect take-along project and a great holiday gift! The
class meets November 1 and 8 from
5:30 to 8:30 pm.
Call 697-3100 to register now, before the class fills.
At the request of the current graduating class, a
Lace Knitting class has been proposed to the Chattanooga State Continuing Education program. Proposed class dates for this 6-hour class are
November 29 and December 6.
Stay tuned...
