Learn to knit with an expert knitter with 14 years of experience
I am a self-taught knitter who has been knitting for 14 years. Over the years, that I have been knitting I have made washcloths, blankets, scarfs, mittens, socks, sweaters, baby items, and stuffed animals, and a few times, I have created my own patterns or tweaked a pattern.
Knitting is a great relaxing activity, is a great way to make gifts for others, and works well for keeping your hands busy. As much as I love knitting, I enjoy teaching others to knit and helping with figuring out the different stitches and techniques required for certain patterns. Whether you are looking to learn how to knit, or you already knit but need help with certain techniques or stitches, I would be happy to help. And I am happy to help anyone regardless of age. Kids enjoy knitting, too.

About Toria S.
Over the years, I have worked with children in multiple environments, babysitting, churches, daycares, schools, and online tutoring. Working with children and helping them learn and grow is a passion of mine. Some of the best days for me are when I can work with a student to help them, especially if I can make it fun or they are able to get what they are working on.
I have an associate degree in Early Childhood Development from the University of Akron and recently graduated from Crown College with a bachelor's in Christian Ministry. From my educational experience, along with all the coursework in reading and phonics, I have had many field hours teaching in classrooms.
From all the different situations where I have gotten to teach and work with students, I have been able to work with students from preschool through middle school. Though I have the most experience with preschool and young elementary students.
Recently, I began tutoring online. With that I have been teaching mostly kindergarten readiness, reading, phonics, and English/English Language Arts. Though I can also teach preschool themed classes (weather, dinosaurs, etc), knitting, and Bible.
When I am teaching or tutoring, my goal is to help support and encourage while making the learning process fun and engaging.
Hope you have a good day.
