Description
You've learned to knit and are enjoying it, but ... uh-oh, there's something wrong with your knitting! Never fear, almost everything in knitting can be fixed. In this class, you'll learn how to "read" your knitting to identify problems, what causes issues like accidental holes and unintentionally expanding knitting, and how to fix common problems like dropped or twisted stitches. You'll learn how to tink, how to frog, and how to know which one to do when. You'll learn how and when to use lifelines, and a few other tips and tricks along the way!
