Would you like a cozy hand-knitted scarf to protect yourself from the Melbourne Winter? 

How about a super chunky one you made yourself using this cool technique called ARM KNITTING.

That’s right, no complicated needle knitting, but a playful way of knitting with your arms only. 

Come and experience the joy of this fun craft using just your arms and beautiful thick wool!

A perfect workshop for complete knitting beginners or people who love to knit but are keen to learn a cool new knitting technique!

Please note: it usually takes 2-3 hours to finish off a complete scarf. This class is structured for you to practice and familiarise yourself with the technique. You will finish off the scarf in your own space after class.

What we will cover?

  • Arm-knitting techniques (no equipment needed, just your arms!)
  • Casting on & casting off & changing yarn to create different twists and colours
  • Design elements: texture & colour matching & aesthetic
