You Don't Have to be Scared of: Lace
Lace doesn’t have to be intimidating—we promise.
In this class, part of our “You Don’t Have to Be Scared Of…” series, we’ll break lace down into simple, approachable steps so you can knit with confidence. You’ll learn how to read lace charts, understand common stitches like yarn overs and decreases, and fix mistakes without panic.
We’ll work through a beginner-friendly lace pattern together so you can see how everything flows—and by the end, you might just find lace is your new favorite thing.
Perfect for adventurous beginners and intermediate knitters who are ready to expand their skills and realize they never had anything to be scared of in the first place.
