    Duration:
    One 4-hour class

    Skills Learned:
    Knitting these charming little figures is an ideal way to begin the holidays and a fun way to spend a crafternoon with a friend. Year after year, you will bring out elves to set the holiday mood. These elves can sit on a mantel or table, hang on a tree, drape along a garland, or tie onto a package. In this class you will complete an elf and may begin a second one, because elves are gregarious. Elf knitting is addictive and easy for the knitter who can work in the round.

    Prerequisites:
    Must be competent to independently knit and purl in the round, cast-on, bind-off and read a pattern.

    Included:
    Pattern, yarn, Fiberfil, washer for 1 elf

    Additional Info:
    Bring your own US 3 DPN's or circular needle for very small diameters. Class is taught using DPN's. Also, bring scissors, stitch markers, tapestry needle and your usual knitting notions.

    Instructor:
