Knitting Classes at the Knitting Garage in Rhinebeck

You all know about the classes at Knit With Judy in New Paltz. I thought I'd share some of the love by letting you know what other classes there are in the area. Something may strike your fancy that is closer to where you live or work than Knit With Judy classes.  Or maybe they offer something you can't get here, or at a more convenient time. Or maybe you want to try something new, or attend with a friend who doesn't live close to here. Most of the other classes are held at local yarn stores, so you can also check out their scrumptions supplies.

We'll start with Doris Formby's classes at the Knitting Garge in the historic Al Stickles department store in the heart of Rhinebeck. Classes here are largely project-based and meet on Saturday mornings. It looks like there are a lot of fun projects in the works there this month.

In addition, Doris offers a Tuesday evening beginner's class and private lessons.

Check out all the classes here: Knitting Garage 2014 spring classes.

Other Knitting Classes in the Area

We have a full set of classes at Knit With Judy (see "courses offered" in the side bar to your right).

But, sometimes we don't offer a class that you need, or you got closed out of a class you wanted to take.  Maybe our classes aren't offered at the times that are convenient for you.  Or, perhaps we don't offer the kind of class you are wanting -- or you want to explore some other teacher.

To make it easier for you, we've listed a few places that give knitting (or other fiber-related) classes in the area.  Contact them directly for current offerings.
