Knitting with Kids

Learning to knit at a young age is a lifelong gift. You and your child will learn the basics of knitting while creating a lovely washcloth. We recommend age 8 and up (younger kids really don’t yet have the hand dexterity, but may enjoy finger knitting).

Class cost is $25 a session per kid. Classes are scheduled when there is interest at a time that works for both you and us! To contact the store about interest in or questions about the class, call 828-253-2750 or email us.

Materials to buy (at Purl’s): Size 7 or 8 needles, light colored worsted weight wool yarn.

Teacher Rik Schell, one of the store owners, has taught kids of various ages many things and loves having crochet be on the list.
