The Learning Corner will be open all day with experienced knitters and crocheters from our local Belrose/Northern Beaches club as well as members from the NSW knitters Guild. You are encouraged to ask as many questions as you can! If you are new to knitting or crocheting, they can help (and we have plenty of spare yarn and needles so no need to spend money on practice tools) and they can also help those wanting to learn a new stitch.
We have been provided with plenty of pattern books/magazines for you to use (and take home at the end of the day - after the event has finished). We also recommend bringing a simple pattern that you like so our experts can get you started and teach you the essentials.
