Kids’ Knitting: Like riding a bicycle, knitting is a “muscle memory" that will remain with your child throughout his or her life life. Knitting is also known to improve fine motor skills such as handwriting. In one class or more, your child will learn the basics and knit a pair of “wristers" or fingerless gloves. Additional and more advanced skills will be offered should there be sufficient demand. Co-ed. Ages 8 and up: One - 75 minute class. $35 includes all supplies.

$20 per /mini course or $110 for all 6.
