Watauga Arts Council hosts Knitting Workshop with Vicki Skywark. Vicki will guide intermediate students through specialized techniques and common issues such as tension and ergonomics, mistake repair, yarn characteristics, seams and much more in a warm and friendly small group environment. Topics are determined by student interest. Bring work in progress or whatever you have to the workshop for “untangling.” Space is limited.
