Learn how to arm knit yourself a super cozy blanket this winter! Our popular winter workshop is back! Arm knitting with arms and without needles! This is the simplest and most satisfying form of giant knitting (or to some known as extreme knitting) you will get. With the scrummiest super sized yarn and just a few hours you will go home proud as punch with your blanket!
Giant knitting is a knitting technique using super jumbo giant yarn to create high quality pieces, ideal for making large scarves or snoods, blankets, cushions and even carpets! And we love teaching spreading the love of giant arm knitting too!

The roving can shed so wearing short sleeve clothing if possible is helpful, or lighter colours so its not too visible afterwards. We also suggest bringing a large carrier bag with you to take your blanket home in.

We're not sure when and we can't be sure who started it, but somewhere along the line, knitting has become the quirky girl's pastime du jour. As well as the occasional hip indie girl you see knitting on the train, there's a pack of crafty stars getting in on the needle action too, including Julia Roberts, Cameron Diaz and Madonna. If you're feeling out of the loop, then we’re happy to show you how.
After over two and a half hours of knitting and knattering, you'll feel like a pro; you’ll have learned all the basics including knit and purl stitch, how to cast on and cast off, stocking stitch and garter stitch. Keep your new-found skills topped up at home using your take away kit of bamboo knitting needles (lightweight, so great for beginners!), yarn and a 'how to' guide.
Do have a look at our other Beginners Knitting workshop where you learn how to knit as well as learning how to another project at the same time. More information here.
