The Twisted Stitch, knitting lessons.

If you are living in, or traveling through the San Francisco Bay Area and find that you absolutely gotta have a knitting lesson, one-on-one, in a cozy chair, with tea and possibly biscuits, contact me! I live in El Sobrante and am often available with a few days' notice. Did you make a mistake and just can't face ripping? I can help you there too. Just want a quick refresher? Or are you starting out for the first time and don't even yet know if you are a picker or thrower? Drop me a line. Rates as of January 2006:

One hour deluxe lesson:

A one-on-one instruction perfect for first time knitters
How to make your own needles
A ball of yarn
Cast-on, Knit, Purl & Yarn Over, Bind-off
A pattern for a first project
A quick reference booklet

kids are welcome to hang out during your lesson, but if they would like to learn, they must have their own lesson.
