☆ Workshop “Tips & Tricks”
Aimée learned to knit as a child and, through running her yarn shop and brand, has developed countless useful techniques.
In this class, she’ll share her favorite knitting tips for making your knitting easier and more enjoyable — including techniques like the Folded Hem and Tubular Bind Off.
