Knitting Lessons in Fresh Meadows. Amazing Teachers.

I offer patient guidance and encouragement. I see knitting as a process of growth and development- moving forward at a pace that the student is comfortable as we cultivate confidence and technique.

As with crocheting, I can teach a range of students, from those with the beginning desire to learn to students wishing to hone specific techniques. My favorite techniques include in the round and double pointed needles, because who doesn't want to learn to avoid more sewing?

I've been teaching knitting for 7 years and my students have gone on to create bags, scarves, headbands, and bracelets. Within the first few lessons, you'll be able to complete a headband or scarf and as time goes on you'll be able to knit a hat in the round. I specialize in working with heavy weight yards and creating a funky, wildly textured projects. I love working with students of all ages and experience levels and I can't wait to meet you!

As a long-time knitter and 8th grade English teacher, I know that to learn a skill you need to hone your excited energy and jump right in with personalized guidance. I can help you learn to revel in the knitting process while also creating stunning, hand knit scarves, socks (yes, socks!), shawls (even the Wingspan shawl), and hats to start or continue in your knitting journey. I will be sure to craft our lessons to be exactly what you need to grow and flourish. We will figure out what you need in an informal, "chill" environment to truly benefit from the stress relief that is knitting. Send me a message and I will get back to you ASAP!

My youth was spent in Eastern Europe which meant cold winters. With that came mom’s teaching on how to make a scarf, a blanket, a coffee mug wrapper, socks and sweaters.
Though nowadays it may be counterproductive to knit, there is no better way to show someone you love than something that is handmade by you.
I’ll teach you what it takes to get started. Book your sessions now and let’s start knitting.
