Intro to Hats: the Bankhead hat (Knit, ) $85 class 1

  • Sun Dragon Art & Fiber 181 Rosman Hwy Brevard, NC, 28712 United States (map)

$85 for 2 classes, February 14 & March 14th, 10:30 am. All Saturday classes are advanced beginner, which means already knowing basic knowledge of the craft (knit, purl, casting on). Classes include instruction only unless otherwise noted, supplies must be purchased separately.

The Bankhead is a great straightforward medium weight hat, for beginners and those with experience. The first class will go over the basics of the pattern, as well as getting you started on the hat (joining in the round, ribbing, etc). Class 2 will cover how to navigate the decreases at the crown (top) of the hat, and how to finish it off. Soon you will be ready to tackle any hat!

** the class price only covers instruction, pattern and supplies are additional if needed.
