Historical Craft - Spool Knitting

Saturday, February 4, 2023 9 AM - 12 PM [Laura Reyman]
* This workshop will be in Edwards Place
​
This workshop offers instruction in the basics of spool knitting, which can be everything from using a simple knitting Nancy with four pegs to working with a multi-peg loom to produce hats, scarves, and larger items. Some people find spool knitting to be a less stressful way to knit while others others use it as a step to learning traditional needle knitting.
