Beginners

New to knitting or crochet? You are in the right place. We have helped hundreds of people cast on for the first time — and we know exactly what makes the beginning easier: forgiving yarn, the right tools, and a teacher who remembers what it felt like to be brand new. Start with a worsted-weight wool in a light color and a pair of bamboo needles. If you want company on the way, we teach beginner classes in Glen Ellyn and on Zoom year-round.
