Can you make a big chunky pillow in 30mins? Yes you can!

In this class, we’ll learn a No-needle knitting technique using the chunkiest, softest yarn. You’ll leave with a new fun hobby and a new cozy pillow everyone will be able to finish during the class.

This event will be half social chats with a bunch of like minded queer people and half fun, educational and interactive workshop.

All workshops are taught by queers, for queers.

What will we cover?

In this class you will learn:

  • What is arm / no needle knitting
  • How to begin (cast on), progress, and finish (cast off) a knitting project
  • Suitability of different types and sizes of yarn
  • Ideas for other no needle knitted projects
