Description
Ahoy Dare! I’m excited to unveil: Beanie Bonanza machine knitting workshops! In just three hours, you'll delve into the world of machine knitting in an intimate setting. With a maximum of three participants per session, you'll receive personalised guidance as you craft your very own cosy beanie hat! From mastering the art of casting on with a claw comb, to seamlessly transferring stitches and tackling intricate fair isle patterns, I'll walk you through every step. Plus, you'll learn the ins and outs of seaming with either a linker or darning needle. Ready to dive into the wonderful world of knitting? Secure your spot now – we can't wait to knit alongside you! A couple of important notes for attendees: Access: Ahoy Dare HQ is up one flight of stairs with no lift. So there is no access for wheelchair users. Please contact us if you require wheelchair access or have any issues with stairs and we can look at relocating. Refund Policy: Unfortunately, refunds cannot be provided for workshop cancellations. However, attendees are welcome to transfer their spot to a friend or family member by emailing me. Safety: Attendees are responsible for their own safety, as the workshops are conducted in a working studio environment with potentially sharp tools. If none of the dates suit you, please contact me to arrange a more suitable date/time for you.
