Learn to Knit and Crochet–October

Holiday Ornaments to Crochet and Knit

        These are the trees that have room for more decorations.

Have you always wanted to learn to knit or crochet? Register to join Yarning with Friends for a beginner’s class. New and returning students are welcome.

In our classes, we provide instruction on basic knit and crochet stitches. We also offer one-on-one assistance to people working on their own projects or improving their skills. In our October class you can continue making small stuffed pumpkins if you like. Instructions are available here for small crocheted pumpkins. But this month it’s time to start making small Christmas ornaments to add to the holiday trees we made in 2021. Bring your own pattern if you have one, but we’ll show you how to make a small ornament for the trees in the library or for the tree in your home.

Try this small crocheted wreath in class if you’d like. Bring green, red, and white yarn if you have some. We bought hair ties in case you don’t have any. A few other crochet ideas can be found here.

Details and registration form below under tab EVENT DETAILS.

This class will take place in the MakerSpace on the main floor of the Modesto Library.

  • 5:30 pm – 7:45 pm

There is:

  • No cost
  • No commitment to continue attending classes (but we hope you’ll want to!)
  • No commitment to work on any Yarning with Friends projects

You’ll need a few supplies. If possible, bring knitting needles (medium size, straight or circular), a crochet hook (medium size), scissors, ruler or tape measure and a small amount of worsted weight yarn. We always have some extra yarn if you need it.

The class is free, but we ask that you register, using the form below.

Are you a beginner who's only learned a few stitches? Have you learned a number of stitches but have trouble reading a pattern? Or maybe you are intermediate or advanced and can make almost anything. What types of projects have you completed?
We want to be ready to help!
