FULL IMMERSION-

NEXT DATES

Here is my idea:

How about spending 3 days in a lovely Italian Villa in Rome knitting?
The Villa is situated close to down town Rome and I will organise city tour in the morning and afternoons knitting classes, a perfect occasion to discover the city with all its secrets and learn how to knit altogether.

So how does it sound?  Do you want to know all the details? Keep reading below to find out more about this amazing opportunity!

To be part of the “knitting weekend group” you have to know the basis of knitting, you will be able to cast on,bind off and  ..little more.

The weekend will be organised as follow:

15 hours of classes split in the 3 days:

• DIFFERENT KIND OF
  + INCREASES
  – DECREASES
• PICKING UP STICHES to form borders
• SEW PARTS
• TOP DOWN
• BABY  clothes
• READING PATTERN

You will also have many knitting books and magazine(in english and french) available for you to read and photocopy to bring home with you!
