Whether you're a confident beginner ready to expand your skills, or an experienced knitter who’s never quite tackled the Magic Loop method, this class is for you! Knitting in the round using a long circular needle is a game-changing technique that opens the door to a world of seamless projects—from beanies and socks to sweaters, toys, and more. In this class, Linda will guide you through the process while you knit a simple pair of fingerless mitts—the perfect project to master small-circumference knitting with confidence.

This fun and practical 2-hour class is all about building your circular knitting skills. You’ll learn to knit in the round using the Magic Loop method. By the end of the session, you’ll be well on your way to creating seamless garments and accessories with ease.

To finish the class, Linda will demonstrate other small-circumference knitting techniques, including using double pointed needles and short circular needles, with tips for both English and Continental knitting styles—so you can discover what works best for you.

This class is also an ideal stepping stone to more advanced workshops like Knit My First Sweater with Linda or Learn to Knit Socks with Jane.

Please note: This is not a beginner class. If you’re brand new to knitting, we recommend starting with Learn to Knit with Linda to build your foundational skills first.
