Manchester Wool & Yarn - Thursday 21st November

Come and join us for a super satisfying arm knitting workshop and take home your own super chunky, snuggly blanket! This class is suitable for total beginners – no knitting or crafting experience is required. You’ll be taught how to use your arms as knitting needles and you’ll create your whole blanket before the workshop has ended.

Your finished blanket will measure approximately 150cm x 100cm. The exact size will vary depending on the tension of your yarn and the size of your stitches. This is what makes every blanket so unique. We will teach you how to cast on, knit the stitches, cast off and how to keep your blanket in tip top condition.

You’ll receive your own 2kg ball of vegan friendly “Mammoth” yarn from the masters of extreme knitting, Woolly Mahoosive. Don’t forget to choose your colour at checkout. You can see the range of colours available in the pictures.

It’s best to leave your jewellery and watches at home so they don’t get caught in your yarn and we recommend wearing short sleeves – don’t worry about getting cold, you’ll be toasty and warm as the blanket grows up your arms and down your lap.

This workshop will be taught by local artist Caroline Coates.

Your ticket includes all materials and tuition, a hot drink and sweet treats.

We can’t wait to see you there!
