Knitting 101

  • Emerson Ave Coffee 2011 Genesee Street Utica, NY, 13501 United States (map)

Join us January 31, 2026 to learn the very basics of knitting!

This is the perfect start for those who’ve never picked up a set of knitting needles, or who have tried to learn before and need a refresher.

Free if you bring your own tools/materials, $15 to have materials provided for you

Recommended tools/materials:
-Size 9 or 10 knitting needles: Either straight needles or circular needles with at least a 16” cord
-Chunky weight yarn: Sometimes this is indicated with a #5 and referred to as “heavy”)
If you want a great place to get really affordable supplies, Utica Creative Reuse is a great resource

I also recommend starting with bamboo needles - metal needles are ok but if you can get bamboo, they will be much easier to work with when you’re just starting out. I still use wooden knitting needles for most projects.
